Eutropis multifasciata

It often shows prominent coloured bands along the back. The snout is moderate to blunt and the lower eyelid is scaly (Wikipedia, general species account). Eutropis multifasciata belongs to skink that often shows prominent coloured dorsal bands. Individuals have a number of other distinctive features that allows this species to be distinguished from other species, particularly in the detail of the arrangement of their scales. Their snout is moderate to obtuse, and their lower eyelid is scaly. (Wikipedia, general species account).

The anterior loreal scale is no deeper than the second, and is in contact with the first labial scale. The supranasal scales are largely in contact behind the rostral. The frontonasal scale is broader than it is long, and the prefrontal scales consistently form a median suture. The frontal scale is as long as or shorter than the frontoparietals and interparietal together, and makes contact with the second (and occasionally the first) supraocular.
