| Diagnosis | Diagnosis: A moderately large (to 34.8 mm SVL), robust species of Crenadactylus with wide (HW/HL 0.48– 0.63) and deep (HD/HL 0.28–0.42) head with a long snout (SnL/HL 0.34–0.42). Rostral in full contact with nostril, enlarged internasal extending beyond supranasal, 2 slightly enlarged postmentals, dorsal scales homogeneous, smooth or feebly keeled, 6 pre-cloacal pores, innermost pore-bearing scales separated by an intervening scale, no enlarged tubercles on original tails. Ground colour tan and light brown; dorsal pattern consists of well-defined pale and dark longitudinal stripes, lateral zones pale tan with irregular dark brown stippling, occasionally forming 1 or 2 broken or weakly defined lateral lines; ventrum pale off-white with moderate to weak stippling (Doughty et al. 2016). |
| Comment | Synonymy: This species has been previously synonymized with Crenadactylus ocellatus bilineatus, but revalidated by Doughty et al. 2016. Distribution: See map in Doughty et al. 2016: Fig. 2. Habitat. Collection records for several specimens mention they were taken from spinifex clumps or from under rocks near spinifex, with records also from a rocky gully, rock platforms or outcrops (Doughty et al. 2016). |
| Etymology | Named for William A. Horn, financer and early participant of the Horn Scientific Expedition to central Australia in 1894. |
