Gymnophthalmidae
Gymnophthalmidae is a family of lizards with at least 250 species, sometimes known commonly as spectacled lizards or microteiids. They are called "spectacled" because of their transparent lower eyelids, which allow them to still see with closed eyes. As in most lizards, except geckos, these eyelids are movable. The Alopoglossidae have been recently moved from this family. Description and ecology Spectacled lizards are related to the Teiidae, but they look like skinks (slightly more distant relatives) with smooth scales. They are generally small lizards; many species have reduced limbs. Unusually among lizards, however, it is generally the hind limbs that are reduced or absent, rather than the forelimbs. Bauer (1998). Gymnophthalmids live in a wide variety of habitats, from desert to mountain to rain forest, throughout Central America and South America. They are usually inhabitants of the forest floor or wet areas associated with tropical forests, either nocturnal or intermitte ...

Potamites
''Potamites'' is a genus of lizards in the family Gymnophthalmidae. The genus is restricted to northern South America (Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru) and southern Central America (Costa Rica and Panama). They are semiaquatic and found near streams. Taxonomy and species Until 2005, species now placed in ''Potamites'' were included in '' Neusticurus'', another genus containing semi-aquatic lizards of South America. Despite the move, some still have an English name that refers to their former genus, including ''P. strangulatus'', the big-scaled neusticurus. Even after this split, genetic studies revealed that ''Potamites'' was paraphyletic and to resolve this two species were moved to ''Gelanesaurus'' in 2016. The genus ''Potamites'' currently contains 8 valid species. Further changes are likely, as ''P. ecpleopus'' as currently defined is paraphyletic, and it has been suggested that ''trachodus'', usually considered a subspecies of ''P. strangulatus'', should be reco ...
