Summary description from Wikipedia:
Tympanocryptis intima
The gibber earless dragon (Tympanocryptis intima) also known as the smooth-snouted earless dragon, is a species of agamid lizard endemic to Australia. It is one of a documented species of the genus Tympanocryptis, a group of small terrestrial lizards that feed off invertebrates and are characterised by the absence of an external ear structure.
Tympanocryptis intima, also known as the gibber earless dragon and the smooth snouted dragon, belongs to the family Agamidae and can be distinguished from other genera within the family by a hidden tympanum, lack of dorsal crest and gular sac but has a gular fold. The genus of tympanocryptis includes other documented species, in which one of them is T.intima. This species can be differentiated from other species within the genus by the tubercles as they are enlarged, sparse, are wider than the length and tend to form four longitudinal lines.
