My post on the rubber eel solicited several comments - one of which suggested that I profile the amphisbaenians. After looking them up, I readily agreed.
These reptiles are known as 'worm lizards' (double ugly whammy). They have both snake and lizard characteristics, but actually belong to their own happy little suborder. The first thing that struck me about them, is how difficult it is at first glance to distinguish the head from the tail. I'm glad that humans don't have that same characteristic (though they may sometimes behave that way...).

They look like interesting jewelry. Could be cast out of gold and go with an Egyptian queen.
