DiagnosisUnfortunately we had to temporarily remove additional information as this was scraped by multiple AI companies who sell that data to their customers. These details, e.g. detailed descriptions or comparisons (about 3530 characters), are available for collaborators and contributors. Please contact us for details. 
CommentSynonymy partly after SMITH 1935 and MANTHEY 1983. Amarasinghe et al. 2018 synonymized tjendikianensis (and balinensis) with multifasciata.

Distribution: Reported from but not listed by DAS 1999 for the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Possibly in Bhutan (Lenz 2012).

Subspecies after MAUSFELD & SCHMITZ (2003). Mabuya multifasciata rudis has been elevated to species status.

Type Species: Euprepes Sebae DUMÉRIL & BIBRON 1839 is the type species of the genus Eutropis Fitzinger, 1843 (fide DAS et al. 2008).

Key: for a key to Philippine species of Eutropis see Barley et al. 2020: 67.

Reference images: see Uetz et al. 2024 for high-resolution reference images for this species. 
EtymologyNamed after Latin multi= many and fascia = band, probably after the more or less obvious dorsal stripes of the species.

The genus name comes from Greek eu-, meaning “good”, and the noun Τροπις, tropis, the keel of a ship. In combination, Eutropis refers to the keeled scales. The gender of the genus is feminine (Mausfeld et al. 2002: 289, Böhme & Denzer 2019).
