抄録

The type specimens of Scincella boettgeri (Van Denburgh, 1912) are mainly registered at the California Academy of Sciences, with a few of them now being registered at other institutions. Herein, we report a paratype specimen, previously exchanged with Kyoto University, now held at the National Science Museum, Tokyo. We compared the morphology of the specimen to the original description and here provide data on its morphological characteristics as well as photographs of the specimen.
