Yes. There are two species of echidnas: the short-beaked echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) of Australia (and a small region in Papua New Guinea), and the long-beaked echidna (Zaglosssus bruijni) of New Guinea. There are several sub-species of the long-beaked echidna: the Western long-beaked echidna, Sir David's long-beaked echidna and the Eastern long-beaked echidna.
