Vernacular names

Eugongylus is a genus of skinks in the subfamily Eugongylinae.[1] It was previously recognised as namesake of the Eugonglyus group of genera within Lygosominae, where it occupied a quite basal position.[2] Members of this genus are commonly called mastiff skinks or short-legged giant skinks.
Species

The following species are recognized as being valid.[3]

Eugongylus albofasciolatus (Günther, 1872) – white-banded mastiff skink, white-banded giant skink, white-striped cape skink, barred shark skink
Eugongylus mentovarius (Boettger, 1895) – odd-chinned mastiff skink, odd-chinned giant skink
Eugongylus rufescens (Shaw, 1802) – bar-lipped sheen-skink
Eugongylus sulaensis (Kopstein, 1927) – Sula skink
