| The Florida worm lizard looks like a pale earthworm. On closer inspection, it looks, moves, and feels more like a blind snake. |  |
| Color ranges from a fleshy color to pale pink. The nose and tail may be darker. |  |
| The mouth is recessed to protect it while burrowing. |  |
A persistent burrower, they are sometimes seen when they pop up from beneath leaf litter, especially if they get wet, and hurry back underground. |
