Diporiphora nobbi is a small lizard from the agamid family. It lives in eastern Australia and quickly runs on the ground in search of prey.
Diporiphora nobbi differs from other agamas by its narrow body and special arrangement of scales on the back. It is important for nature because it controls the number of insects and serves as food for snakes and birds.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
