EARLESS DRAGON - Tympanocryptis sp. - (Badham, 1976) The ear is actually present below a layer of skin. Insectivorous, it is commonly found eating insects killed by cars on
roads at dusk. Specimens have been found sleeping on roads at night in warmer weather. Often individuals will occupy
burrows sited at the base of a low shrub or rock, to which they will retreat when alarmed. [eng]
