I agree with it being Amphibolurus bursi, Burns' dragon. Due to the body shape and patterning. Bruns dragons are not the only Amphibolurus in the Longreach area. Amphibolurus gilberti gilbert's dragon is also found in the Longreach area. This lizard has too small of a head and to much patterning for it to be a gilbert's. http://arod.com.au/arod/reptilia/Squamata/Agamidae/Amphibolurus/gilberti

I hadn't considered A. centralis, as it's out of range according to Cogger's distribution map. It's worth considering though, due to the similarity of these two species.
How does hip scalation distinguish between these two species Scott?
@ironized, can you take close-up photos of the hips and post them up?
Thanks mate. I'm guessing that Scott wants to look at whether or not the scales are heterogenous or homogenous or some such other fine detail, so it's critical that the scales in the pic are in focus.
