The disjunct distribution of the scincine genera in east and central Asia implies, of course, that the scincine ancestors (pos- sibly, but not necessarily, Eumeces) were more widespread at one time in the past. Just how widespread these scincines may have been is a very interesting question that future paleontological discoveries may answer. It would be interesting to know, for example, whether the scinci

I have seen the following scincine skulls: BARKUDIA: insahris (MCZ 54712). BRACHYMELES: bonitae (MCZ 20129), gracilis boulengeri (MCZ field tag 710, MCZ 20131, 26540, 26545, 54253, 26552,.
