''Proscelotes arnoldi'', commonly known as Arnold's skink or Arnold's montane skink, is a species of lizard endemic to Africa.〔"''Proscelotes arnoldi'' ". The Reptile Database. www.reptile-database.org.〕 Sometimes called a legless skink, it has tiny reduced limbs. The front limbs are very small, and both fore-limbs and hind-limbs have reduced function and appear to be vestigial attachments for its lifestyle and habitat. ==Etymology== The specific name, ''arnoldi'', is in honor of entomologist George Arnold (1881-1962) of the National Museum in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.〔Beolens B, Watkins M, Grayson M. 2011. ''The Eponym Dictionary of Reptiles''. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press. xiii + 296 pp. ISBN 978-1-4214-0135-5. (''Proscelotes arnoldi'', pp. 11-12).〕
