The Northern Blue-tongued Skink (Tiliqua scincoides intermedia) is a subspecies of the Eastern Blue-tongued Skink (T. s. scincoides). Similar to other blue-tongued lizards, the Northern Blue-tongued Skink has a very distinctive patterning. Northerns tend to be a bright orange to soft peachy orange or even a yellowish colour with darker stripes along their sides and back, with a lighter creamier colour on their bellies. As their name would suggest, they also have a bright blue tongue that is often used to warn off or startle predators. Their legs are short and small compared to the length and width of their bodies. They can grow to approximately total length.
