Ta ta dragon is the often used or common name for, Amphilbolurus longirostris. They are found in Western Australia, Nortern territory, Northern Victoria, and remote parts of south west Queensland. They are avaiable to purchase here in W.A but command a high price due to the fact that they a large collecting royalty. However there should be some avaiable soon which are captive hatched and have therefore become royalty except.
