Default Every seen anything like this?

Hi all,

About 14 years ago I had a couple of Teratoscincus that I was never really able to identify. They are larger than T. microlepis, but smaller than T. s. scincus. They had some coloration that is reminiscent of T. keyserlingi, but were much smaller. I've attached 4 photos that I dug out of storage. Anyone ever seen any others like these? Any idea what species/subspecies? Possibly a hybrid?

Thanks,

Steve

No idea, but species diversity within Teratoscincus exceeds current taxonomy.
