Sandfish skinks (Scincus scincus), also known as common sandfish, are fascinating reptiles native to the deserts of North Africa and the Middle East. These skinks are renowned for their ability to swim through loose sand, using undulating movements to navigate their arid environments. They have smooth, shiny scales and a streamlined body, which reduce friction and facilitate their unique locomotion. Sandfish skinks are diurnal and primarily insectivorous, feeding on insects and other small invertebrates.
