Lipinia vittigera is a small lizard from the skink family. It has a thin body with several dark stripes along the back and sides.
Lipinia vittigera differs from closely related species by its distinct longitudinal stripes on the body. It helps maintain balance in the forest by eating insects and serving as food for larger animals.
