Phymaturus spurcus was described by Barbour in 1921. In 1931, Burt and Burt placed this species in the synonymy of Phymaturus patagonicus based on their comparison of one paratype of P. spurcus with one specimen of P. patagonicus. Additionally, Burt and Burt considered P. patagonicus a subspecies of Phymaturus palluma.

Headbobing behavior in the high mountain lizard Phymaturus palluma: effects of sex and context
Amphibia-Reptilia, 2023Abstract Headbobbing represents one of the primary sources of communication in Iguanian lizards.
