6, see text Pseudemoia is a genus of skinks native to southeastern Australia.
For similar skinks see genera Bassiana, Lampropholis, and Niveoscincus.
At least in P. entrecasteauxii, P. pagenstecheri, and P. spenceri, a placenta-like structure is formed during pregnancy to pass nutrients to the developing offspring.
[2] Similar mammal-like adaptations also occur in the skink genera Chalcides, Eumecia, Mabuya, Niveoscincus, and Trachylepis.
