Attention is drawn to the overlooked occurrence of the Bridled skink in relatively northern provinces of central Turkey, viz. Sivas and Gümüşhane. Zoogeographical issues are discussed and ecological implications of living at high elevations are compared to those of lowland conditions. The apparent lack of uniform and bilineata colour pattern morphs, viz. the absence of polymorphism is indicated.
