The angled worm lizard (Agamodon anguliceps) is a species of reptile in the family Trogonophidae. It is found in Somalia in the Horn of Africa.[1] Markings on specimens of Agamodon anguliceps are mottled as yellowish white with darker brown markings along the side of the lizard.[2] The anatomical skull structure of the angled worm lizard features a short, sharp angle between the occipitoparietal and facial plane region.[2]
