Oligosoma infrapunctatum, the speckled skink, is a species of skink in the family Scincidae. It is endemic to New Zealand.[1]

The speckled skink is classified under the New Zealand Threat Classification System as being in 'gradual decline'.[2] However, evidence indicates that this classification refers to a complex of closely related species, and the actual O. infrapunctatum may be highly endangered or even extinct.[3][1]
