2015 Simon J. Tonge cc-by-3.0

Cryptoblepharus boutonii is a species of Squamata in the family skinks. They are listed as near threatened by IUCN. They are found in the palearctic, australasia, Afrotropics, and the indo-malayan realm. They have sexual reproduction. Reproduction is oviparous. They rely on running to move around.

URI: http://eol.org/schema/terms/nearThreatened
Definition: A taxon is Near Threatened when it has been evaluated against the criteria but does not qualify for Critically Endangered, Endangered or Vulnerable now, but is close to qualifying for or is likely to qualify for a threatened category in the near future

corneal eyes
- URI: https://eol.org/schema/terms/corneal_eyes
- Definition: Because of the difference in refractive index between air and water (or corneal tissue), a curved cornea is an image-forming lens in its own right. Its focal length is determined by the radius of curvature of the cornea. Many corneal eyes (eg: in land vertebrates) also have lenses, but the lens is flattened and weakened compared with an aquatic lens; most of the refractive power is provided by the cornea. Corneal eyes cannot focus in aquatic habitat.
