I am not sure exactly what you are asking but a skink is a form of lizard usually found in Australia. They are diverse in appearance and habits, with elongated bodies and short legs (with a long body, large head and small legs with delicate toes) or none at all in a select few. Their sizes range from just a few inches, to two-feet long including the tail. It is the largest of the blue-tongued lizards. It inhabits forests, woodlands, and grasslands of Northern Australia. You can get more info at the following websites:
Blue-tongued lizards are one of the largest members of the skink family. There are six species of blue-tongues which occur in Australia. They also occur in parts of Indonesia and New Guinea. As suggested by its name, its distinguishing characteristic is a blue tongue. All species are relatively large (10-50cm), heavy-bodied, short-limbed, and broad with a distinct head and short, tapered tail.

These lizards occupy a range of habitats from desert, semi-arid savannah, woodland and temperate suburban areas through to tropical jungle. They are omnivorous, and may feed on berries, flowers and other plant material, fungi, insects, spiders, or other small animals, carrion, and are very partial to snails and slugs. They may grow up to 60 cm (depending on the species).
Solitary for most of the year, mating occurs in September-November. Pair bonding may occur over successive years (Bull 1988). The young are born (live) 3-5 months after mating (December-April). Litters may have 5-18 individuals.
