Subspecies: Leiocephalus carinatus varius GARMAN 1887 has been considered as a valid species by recent authors.

Type species: Leiocephalus carinatus GRAY 1827 is the type species of the genus Leiocephalus GRAY 1827.

Extinct Leiocephalus species:
------------------------------------------
Leiocephalus apertosulcus ETHERIDGE 1965; PREGILL 1992: 37
Distribution: Dominican Republic (as fossils); Type locality: Stratum 2, cave in Cerro de San Francisco, Municipio Pedro Santana, San Rafael (= La Estrelleta) Province, Republica Dominicana. Holotype: MCZ(VP) 3404. Right dentary.
Note: May have been persisted into pre-Colombian times since Etheridge found skeletal elements which have been assigned to this species.

Leiocephalus anonymous PREGILL 1984; PREGILL 1992
Distribution: Haiti. Type localiy: unspecified cave(s) near St. Michael de l’Atalye, Dept. L'Artibonite, Haiti. Holotype: USNM (VP) 340182 (right dentary). Note: only known from fossils. May have been persisted into historical times since Pregill found skeletal elements which have been assigned to this species.

Leiocephalus roquetus BOCHATON et al. 2021; Guadeloupe, La Désirade Island 
EtymologyNamed after Latin “carinatus” = keeled (like a ship).

The genus was named after Greek leios (λείος), smooth, plain, not embroidered + Greek kéfali (κεφάλη), head. [In the diagnosis of the type species, "…capite glabro…"].
