Broad-headed Skink
Martin Dies State Park,
Jasper Co., Texas
16 May 2013
Basking. Very tame for a laticeps.
Found it on a tree trunk hiding between 2 dividing portions of the trunk.
The Broad-headed Skink (Eumeces laticeps) is — together with the Great Plains Skink — the largest of the Eumeces-skinks, growing to a total length of 15 centimetres (5.9 in) to nearly 43 centimetres (17 in).
