=========
The broad-headed skink or broadhead skink (Plestiodon laticeps) is species of lizard, endemic to the southeastern United States. The broad-headed skink gets its name from the wide jaws, giving the head a triangular appearance. Adult males are brown or olive brown in color and have bright orange heads during the mating season in spring. Female broad-headed skinks have five light stripes running down the back and the tail. Order: Squamata > Family: Scincidae > Genus: Plestiodon > Species: Plestiodon laticeps |
