Eutropis carinata (Schneider 1801) :

Commonly observed inside the park basking in open grassland and on rocky substrates. Observed at Kamini Daha, Bhata, Mahadev Khola, Halkhoria Daha, Ghode Masan, Ramauli-Pratappur, Sikaribasb Bhedaha Khola, and Darau Khola. This is one of the most commonly observed skinks in Nepal. However, earlier researchers did not report it from Parsa National Park ( Fig. 14 ).
