The banded supple skink (Lygosoma haroldyoungi ), also known commonly as Harold's writhing skink or Harold Young's supple skink,[2] is a species of skink, a lizard in the family Scincidae.[3] The species is endemic to Southeast Asia.

Etymology

The specific name, haroldyoungi, is in honor of American missionary Harold Young, who worked in Burma (now Myanmar) and Thailand.[2]

Geographic range

L. haroldyoungi is distributed in northern, central, and eastern Thailand and neighbouring Laos (Moravec and Böhme 2008). In Thailand it has been found in the provinces of Chachoengsao, Chaiyaphum, Chanthaburi, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Nong Khai, Phetchabun, Phitsanulok, Nakhon Ratchasima, and Loei.[3] In Laos it occurs in Vientiane Province, and it is also found in Myanmar.[1]

Habitat

L. haroldyoungi is found in tropical deciduous forest and cultivated areas.[3]

Conservation status

L. haroldyoungi is threatened by habitat loss, but this is not a significant threat as it survives in agricultural areas.[3]
