Hi,
YOu were not incorrect in your first post. Emerald Tree Skinks aka Green Tree Skinks were once known as, and often still are, Dasia smaragdina. They were reclassified as Lampropholis smaragdina. You will probably find more information on them as Dasia smaragdina. I have seen them for sale in the classified, but I think they were WC. I recall someone selling them a couple of years ago out of oklahoma. The place was called alligator something...Alligator Alley, or something like that. You can contact them on their website. I don't know if they still have any, but it is worth a try. I know of another place that has some. I don't know their email, but their phone # is 480-232-1816. JOsh
