| Etymology | Named after a word from the Dieri language of northeastern SA, “Kartiwarru”, used as a noun in apposition and is used to describe ‘‘a red-backed lizard, about 3 inches long’’ that is not food (Dieri Aboriginal Corporation, 2022). Dieri language is spoken by First Nations peoples where this lizard species is found (Lester et al., 2022). |
