STORR, G.M. (1981): Three new agamid lizards from Western Australia. - Rec. West. Aust. Mus. 8 (4): 599-607.

WITTEN, G.J. (1984): Relationships of Tympanocryptis aurita Storr, 1981. – Rec. West. Aust. Mus., 11 (4): 399-401.

Several characters of Tympanocryptis aurita Storr, 1981 indicate a closer relationship to Ctcno{lhorus than to Tympanocryptis. However, it possesses other features not present in Ctcnophorus, and thus should not be placed in that genus. The genus Cryptagama is erected to accommodate the species.
