Like other mole skinks, it feeds primarily on cockroaches, spiders, and crickets. It shares habitat with the Sand Skink, which is also endangered, but does not compete with it: whereas the Sand Skink feeds underground, the Bluetail Mole Skink hunts on the surface. Juveniles usually have a blue tail which makes up slightly. The Bluetail Mole Skink grows to 9 to 15 cm (3 to 6 inches). If you live in a smaller town, or in a rural area it may arrive between 12-4pm. The bluetail mole skink is a small, shiny, cylindrical lizard of a brownish color. The African Blue Tail Lizards for sale are currently 4" adults.Īll our reptiles come with a Live Arrival Guarantee. The bluetail mole skink is likely to be impacted by climate change primarily through alteration and loss of habitat. Snakes at Sunset has them feeding on appropriately sized crickets and mealworms. We currently have some African Blue Tailed Lizards for sale there were field collected. It is likely, therefore, that conservation efforts directed at the more common Florida Sand Skink and Florida Scrub Lizard would benefit the Bluetail Mole Skink.African Blue Tail Lizard for Sale (Cryptoblepharus egeriae) The concordance of genetic differentiation among these species is further evidence suggesting that similar conservation issues face the three species, namely, preserving the remaining xeric habitat. The Bluetail Mole Skink and the Florida Sand Skink had similar genetic diversity, and all three lizards had comparable patterns of genetic differentiation.
BLUETAIL MOLE SINK PATCH
Our results also suggest that each sampled habitat patch should be treated as a population and reintroductions should minimize the distance between recipient and source locations to limit altering the potential long-term pattern of genetic differentiation among Bluetail Mole Skinks on the Lake Wales Ridge. Similar Species: Easily confused with Broad-headed Skink and Southeastern Five-lined Skink. Patches can be divided into central and southern Lake Wales Ridge groups. Juveniles have a bright blue tail and distinct stripes. The bluetail mole skink inhabits xeric hammocks, sandhill and scrub habitats within its small. Little is known about the reproduction and life history of this lizard. The bluetail mole skink relies on a diet of roaches, crickets and spiders. 201301 publication date Complete As needed-87.429040-79.872251 30.983191 24.492815 NONE Sand Skink Blue-tailed (Bluetail) Mole Skink NONE boundaries planningCadastre NONE biota GNIS Florida 2011 NONE NONE University of. This small brown skink is a subspecies endemic to a small range in central Florida. The Bluetail Mole Skink was highly variable at the genetic markers, and significant genetic differentiation occurred among scrub patches. The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes. We compared the Bluetail Mole Skink's pattern of genetic diversity and differentiation to those of two other lizards with similar geographic and habitat distributions-the Florida Sand Skink (Plestiodon reynoldsi) and the Florida Scrub Lizard (Sceloporus woodi). To generate important data for conserving this species, we characterized genetic variation at the mitochondrial cytochrome-b gene and seven microsatellite loci among multiple populations. Geographic Information System (GIS) data for the consultation area boundary for sand and blue-tailed mole skinks. The threatened Bluetail Mole Skink (Plestiodon egregius lividus) is limited to the xeric habitats of the southern Lake Wales Ridge in central Florida.
