dct:abstract
  • Field research in the ultramafic peaks of northwest New Caledonia has resulted in the discovery of two new species of scincid lizard from the Massif de Kopeto. One is a surface active species of moderate size that on the basis of genetic and morphological criteria is recognized as the sister species to Lioscincus steindachneri Bocage (the type species of the genus). The other species belongs to the genus Nannoscincus, a group of diminutive, elongate, small-limbed, burrowing species. Both are so far only known from relatively high elevation closed forest on the Massif de Kopeto, an area actively mined for nickel. Both species are considered to be of particular conservation concern due to their apparently restricted distribution, and the potential threat to their preferred habitat from mining activities.
