Origin of the common names "... emo skink"
[edit]To say that they are commonly called "emoias" doesn't tell us where that is so, nor the origin of the word "emo" that appears in dozens of the English common names tabulated in the article.

Distribution map
[edit]A well-designed distribution map for the genus would be very informative. For example, readers would be able to see, at a glance, whether these species are found in their homelands, or where they might travel to have a chance to see some. yoyo (talk) 21:00, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
