Dasia olivacea , the olive dasia or olive tree skink , is a semi-arboreal species of skink lizard native to Southeast Asia .
Distribution
[ edit ]
Dasia olivacea is found south of approximately 15° north in Southeast Asia, including parts of Laos , Malaysia , Myanmar , Thailand , Singapore , Vietnam , throughout the island of Borneo (Sarawak , Kalimantan , Brunei ), the Indonesian islands of Bali , Java and Sumatra (among others), as well as India ’s Andaman and Nicobar Islands .
The species is originally known from a single locality in Cambodia . The northernmost extreme for D. olivacea is possibly the Sakaerat Environmental Research Station in the Nakhon Ratchasima Province of eastern Thailand.[2]
Ecology and conservation
[ edit ]
Dasia olivacea lives almost exclusively in trees, only rarely descending to nest or to move between trees.[1] Eggs may be laid more than once per year, in clutches of up to 14 eggs; incubation lasts 69 days.[1] Because it is very widespread and ecologically flexible, D. olivacea is considered to be a species of Least Concern on the IUCN Red List .[1]
Taxonomy
[ edit ]
Dasia olivacea was first described by John Edward Gray , in a publication of the Annals of Natural History (1839),[1] [3] as the type species of the (then) newly-discovered genus Dasia . The type locality was "Prince of Wales Island" (now Penang Island ).[1] [3]
Description
[ edit ]
Mature individuals of Dasia olivacea have a green back, with bronze scales towards the flanks and 12 bands of ocelli (eye-like spots) reaching from side to side.[2] [3] The head is primarily a dark olive-green colour with black markings; the underside of the head is a bluish to yellowish green.[2]
