Acontophiops lineatus Sternfeld, 1911 The woodbush legless skink (Acontias rieppeli) is a species of legless skink.

[2] It is found in the Wolkberg mountains of Limpopo Province, South Africa.

Females of the species give birth to live young.

This lizard species was formerly placed in a monotypic (single species) genus as Acontophiops lineatus.

Morphologically the genus shows similarities to Acontias cregoi (formerly Typhlosaurus cregoi) and a recent review placed both of these within the genus Acontias, which, as Acontias lineatus was already occupied, required a new name for this species.
