由于它们能够在松散的风成沙中游泳，因此Scincus属的蜥蜴被广泛称为沙鱼。一些研究报告称，沙鱼这种迷人的特性伴随着其皮肤独特的摩擦学特性，如超低粘附力，摩擦和磨损。然而，这些报告中的大多数是基于用非标准颗粒摩擦计进行的实验。在这里，我们用原子力显微镜观察了单个沙鱼鳞片的微观粘附、摩擦和磨损。不同类型的探针（尖锐的硅尖，球形玻璃尖和砂屑）的摩擦性能的分析表明，摩擦学性能的沙鱼鳞片的微观尺度上是不例外的，如果相比蛇鳞片或技术表面，如铝，聚四氟乙烯，或高度定向热解石墨。
Lizards of the genus Scincus are widely known under the common name sandfish due to their ability to swim in loose, aeolian sand. Some studies report that this fascinating property of sandfish is accompanied by unique tribological properties of their skin such as ultra-low adhesion, friction and wear. The majority of these reports, however, is based on experiments conducted with a non-standard granular tribometer. Here, we characterise microscopic adhesion, friction and wear of single sandfish scales by atomic force microscopy. The analysis of frictional properties with different types of probes (sharp silicon tips, spherical glass tips and sand debris) demonstrates that the tribological properties of sandfish scales on the microscale are not exceptional if compared to snake scales or technical surfaces such as aluminium, Teflon, or highly oriented pyrolytic graphite.
