摘要
A new scincid lizard, Brachymeles minimus, is described from Catanduanes Island, Philippines. It differs from known species, other than Brachymeles vermis and B. apus, in the absence of external limbs. Brachymeles minimus differs from B, vermis and B. apus in its smaller size, lower dorsal scale row count, and pattern of head shields.
