| Distribution | Australia (NE Queensland, restricted to Thornton Peak and the uplands of the Carbine Tableland, e.g., Mt Lewis, Mt Spurgeon) Type locality: Thornton Pk, via Daintree, NEQ (16°10'S, 145°23'E). |
| Reproduction | oviparous |
| Types | Holotype: QM J43911 |
| Diagnosis | Diagnosis: A large Lampropholis with dark flanks and prominent spotting on the posterior ventral surfaces, a row of dark edged pale spots on underside of tail. This species is reliably distinguished from its closest congener (L. bellendenkerensis sp. nov. ) by 14 nucleotide differences in the mitochondrial gene NADH dehydrogenase 4 that result in nine amino acid differences between the species (Table A2 in Singhal et al. 2018). Additional details (2502 characters) are available for collaborators and contributors. Please contact us for details. |
| Comment | Habitat: Occurs in upland rainforest and heath (all records come from above approximately 900 m elevation). Most often seen in warmer, sunlit areas such as in canopy gaps or rocky areas. |
| Etymology | Named after Dr. J. Austin Roberts (1883-1948), a South African zoologist who in his day was the most prominent ornithologist in southern Africa. |
