Mexican mole lizard : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mexican mole lizard
The Mexican mole lizard (''Bipes biporus''), commonly known as the five-toed worm lizard, or simply as ''Bipes'', is a species of amphisbaenian, which is endemic to the Baja California Peninsula. It is one of four species of amphisbaenians that have legs. It should not be confused with the axolotl, a salamander (''Ambystoma mexicanum''), which is usually called ''ajolote'' in Spanish. ==Description== They are pink, lizard-like reptiles, snout-to-vent length and in width, that live for one to two years. Their skin is closely segmented to give a corrugated appearance, and like earthworms, their underground movement is by peristalsis of the segments. The forelegs are strong and paddle-like, while the hindlegs have disappeared, leaving behind only vestigial bones visible in X-rays.
