Notozomus faustus is a species of schizomid arachnid (commonly known as short-tailed whip-scorpions) in the Hubbardiidae family.

It was described in 2000 by Australian arachnologist Mark Harvey.

The specific epithet faustus (Latin: ‘fortunate’ or ‘lucky’) refers to the luck involved in collecting this small species.

[1][2] The species occurs in North Queensland, inhabiting plant litter in closed forest habitats.

The type locality is Conway National Park, some 900 km north-west of Brisbane.
