Field Notes

Description:

Skink that had green colouration, not sure if this would be because of surrounding habitat. Do they change colour depending on habitat? The sun skinks around the house here are all varying shades of brown

Habitat:

In a tree

At first glance Lamprolepis smaragdina but they don't occur in Thailand, so maybe Dasia olivacea?
