The lizard you’re describing is likely the sand-dwelling sandfish (Scincus scincus), also known as the sand skink. It has a smooth, elongated body that can appear pale or white with orange or reddish stripes, which helps it blend into its sandy environment. Sandfish are adept at burrowing into sand and are found in desert regions across North Africa and the Middle East. Their unique adaptations allow them to thrive in arid habitats.
