''Mabuya bistriata'' is a species of skink found in South America and some islands in the Caribbean. Common names include the Two-Striped Mabuya and the Shiny Lizard. It has shiny bronze or copper skin, with a dark longitudinal stripe along each flank that is often bordered by cream-colored lines. Its taxonomy has undergone significant revision in recent years and remains unresolved, such that its distribution and distinction from two similar, closely related species is not clear. Many populations previously identified as ''M. bistriata'' have since been identified as ''M. mabouya'' (in the Caribbean) or ''M. nigropunctata'' (South America). Notwithstanding populations that have been reassigned and pending further revisions, it has been recorded as present in Brazil, French Guiana, Bolivia, and Jamaica, and possibly Peru, Colombia, Trinidad, and Tobago. ==External links== *(Mabuya bistriata ) at the Encyclopedia of Life *(Mabuya bistriata ) at the Reptile Database 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mabuya bistriata」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
