Notozomus elongatus is a species of schizomid arachnid (commonly known as short-tailed whip-scorpions) in the Hubbardiidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was described in 2000 by Australian arachnologist Mark Harvey. The specific epithet elongatus (Latin: ‘prolonged’ or ‘elongated’) refers to the unusually long and slender spermathecal receptacula.[1][2]
