These two were great to watch and try and photograph! Running through the leaf litter and hinting at one point on a bit of bare earth.

Definitely Saproscincus sp., and most probably Saproscincus spectabilis, however two more similar looking species have been recorded in the area, so maybe leave it at genus level.
