The Central Ranges rock skink is a moderately large and robust Liopholis species, with a snout–vent length (SVL) of up to 135 mm and a tail length up to 158 mm. The back, sides, limbs and tail are coloured dull orangish-brown with thin black scale margins, with the top and sides of the head a more vibrant orangish shade.
Most skinks, though, are medium-sized, with snout-to-vent lengths around 12 cm (4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in), although some grow larger; the Solomon Islands skink (Corucia zebrata) is the largest known extant species and may attain a snout-to-vent length of some 35 cm (14 in).
