Etymology

The generic name, Phoxophrys, is from the Greek words φοξός (phoxos) meaning "pointed", and ὀφρúς (ophrys) meaning "eyebrow".^[2]

Description

The genus Phoxophrys closely resembles the genus Japalura but differs in a number of characters, for example by the absence of a dorsal crest, and by having a relatively shorter and deeper head. Male Phoxophrys have a tail that is swollen basally and is flattened above, whereas females have a cylindrical tail.^[3]

Species

The genus Phoxophrys contains the following five species which are recognized as being valid.^[1]

• P. borneensis {{small|Inger, 1960}}
• P. cephalum {{small|(Mocquard, 1890)}}
• P. nigrilabris {{small|(W. Peters, 1864)}}
• P. spiniceps {{small|M.A. Smith, 1925}}
• P. tuberculata {{small|Hubrecht, 1881}}

Nota bene: A binomial authority in parentheses indicates that the species was originally described in a genus other than Phoxophrys.
