A terrific record. However photos very blurry. Given that BrianHerps is very experienced with Liopholis whitii I suggest that he has correctly identified this lizard. Are there any more photographs of this individual? WillO

No, sorry will. Will hopefully see more to confirm. No other liopholis seen on the summit.
Cheers
