- Host: Bray (1964) originally reported the host as Mabuya
raddoni. Mabuya raddoni has since been synonymized pro
parte between the two different hosts,
Mabuya affinis (Senegal mabuya) and Mabuya albilabrus
(although some authors
do list Mabuya raddoni as a separate species). It is impossible to
know which species of skink was actually examined.

- Eimeria ablephari Cannon, 1967
- Host: Cryptoblepharus sp. (syn. Ablepharus boutonii) (a
snake-eyed skink)
- Reference: Cannon 1967b
- Remarks: Cannon (1967b) described this coccidian from an Australian
snake-eyed skink in Queensland he
termed "Ablepharus boutonii." However, this species of skink is
now known to be confined to Chile, some of the islands off of the coast
of Peru, and specific locals in Hawaii. The actual skink once termed
Ablepharus boutonii, and now known to occur
throughout many regions of the Pacific basin, is currently termed
Cryptoblepharus boutonii. To
complicate matters further, this species per sec does
not occur in Australia. Rather, several sister species (or
subspecies according to some authors) have been reported from Queensland
all of which have had the trivial name boutonii incorporated into
their name at one time or another. These include Cryptoblepharus
carnabyi (Shiny-palmed shinning skink or Carnaby's tree skink),
Cryptoblepharus fuhni (Black-boulder shinning
skink or Fuhn's tree skink), Cryptoblepharus
litoralis (Supralittoral shinning skink or Littoral skink),
Cryptoblepharus plagicephalus (Callose-palmed shinning skink or
Centralian tree skink), and Cryptoblepharus virgatus
(Cream-striped shinning skink),
any one of which may be the species actually seen by Cannon. A good
argument in favor of depositing type hosts into accredited museums
whenever possible.
