Mochlus lanceolatus, also known as Broadley's writhing skink, is a species of skink.[1][2] It is endemic to Mozambique and found in the Bazaruto Archipelago and the adjacent mainland (northern tip of the San Sebastian Peninsula). It inhabits dune thicket habitats at elevations below 25 m (82 ft). The known range falls entirely within protected areas (Bazaruto Archipelago National Park and Vilanculos Coastal Wildlife Sanctuary).[1]
