The three-toed snake-tooth skink (Coeranoscincus reticulatus) is a species of skink in the family Scincidae. It is endemic to south-eastern Queensland and north-eastern New South Wales, Australia. [1] [2] [3] It occurs in subtropical rainforest, wet sclerophyll forest, and montane forest on rich dark soils on the coast and adjacent ranges; some coastal/island populations ( Fraser Island and Cooloola) occur on pale sands in lowlands. [1]
Coeranoscincus reticulatus measure 67–195 mm (2.6–7.7 in) in snout–vent length. The limbs are reduced with three digits in each. [2]
