Larutia nubisilvicola is a species of skink endemic to Southern Thailand. It is only known from its type locality in Khao Nan National Park in the Nakhon Si Thammarat Province.[1][2] It is named after its habitat,[2] cloud forest at about 1,300 m (4,300 ft) above sea level. It occurs on the forest floor, close to the trunks of the larger trees that it uses as refugia.[1]
