| |
Steindachner's emo skink, Micronesian skink, dark-sided emoia, dark-sided skink, or dateline emoia (Emoia adspersa) is a species of lizard in the family Scincidae. It is found in Micronesia. [1] [2] The species has also been noted to occur on Niuafoʻou, the northernmost island of Tonga, with sightings in 1930 and 1994. [3] The species is not present on other Tongan islands, and is possibly present due to waif dispersal occurring during Polynesian migration. [4]
