All I've ever heard it pronounced, by multiple local people, is "Bur-Chur"

I hate that, so I pronounce it "Poll-Lip-Ter-Us" Probably also wrong...
 
Well I can't say your too far off. Lol they do kind of remind me of legless lizards. Ik there's a specie of skink that kinda looks similar too, really long skinny body with tiny lil stubby legs, can't really remember what it was called tho lol.
Glass lizard maybe?

Lol makes me want to get a reptile again. I just don't know what I would want to get atm, there's just too many cool looking reptiles out there and I want em all lol.
Can’t go wrong with a crestie imo! Giant day is also up there.

That pretty cool looking and pretty close to what I had in mind but I did find the specie I was thinking about. It's called the mccoy skink.

Lol, that's a crazy looking lizard right there, lol. When lockdown's over and done with and all the gyms open back up it could do to get down there and work on them arms, lol.
