I guess I thought it was different becuase it was found in a completely different habitat than the other Coronados we'd seen that day. Gilbert's made more sense for the rocky pine forest habitat. But seeing as how you have more experience I'll take your word for it. It's been changed.

Not really. It could be a Coronado Skink. What makes you ask?
