Liolaemus rabinoi, commonly known as Rabino's tree iguana, is a species of lizard in the family Iguanidae or the family Liolaemidae. The species is endemic to Argentina.

Etymology

Both the specific name, rabinoi, and the common name, Rabino's tree iguana, are in honor of "M. Rabino" who was the collector of the holotype.[3]
