Title: A New Record of the Viviparous Skink, Mabuya multifasciata (Kuhl, 1820) (Squamata: Reptilia), from Taiwan
Abstract: Three specimens of a Iygosomine lizard. Mabuya multifasciata. were recently captured at Meinong (美濃) and Chengqing Hu (澄清湖) in Kaohsiung County, Taiwan; several additional individuals were also observed at Meinong. The species has been known to exist in South and Southeast Asia, but this is the first Taiwan record. Because both collection sites are near an international port, it is likely that the specimens represent an established population that recently entered Taiwan by means of artificial transportation.
