Dutch term or phrase: Bromeliaskink
Hello,

Sorry for the inconvenience:

The term is the Dutch term for Scientific name: "Proctoporus ventrimaculatus". I only translate English <> Spanish, but I can not find the English term for this one anywhere, just the "Bromeliaskink" from the Netherlands... It is a type of lizard from Perú, and I would need the English version of this "Bromeliaskink".

Thank you very much.
