List of reptiles of Australia

The non-avian reptiles of Australia are a diverse group of animals, widely distributed across the continent.

The only missing extant order is Sphenodontia, containing the tuataras, which are endemic to New Zealand.

Australia has over 860 species, a large number in comparison to other continents; for example, North America's total is about 280.

Spinifex grass is a major habitat which allows them to remain in a relatively cool, moist area.

The world's largest reptile, the saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus), is native to the continent's north coastal area.
