The gravid female seems to have lost and regrown her tail at some stage.

Good to know there is a back-yard population of L. guichenoti at Aranda - so often the back yard skinks are L. delicata.

We do have L. delicata (hence my incorrect id) and the 3-toed Skink. The Blue-tongued Lizard passes through, one just last week
