Saba least gecko

Sphaerodactylus sabanus

Description:

Both sexes reach a maximum length of about 30 mm snout-to-vent. Its dorsal color is brown, and its head is tinted orange. Its ventral surface ranges from white to light brown, with a white or yellow throat. Its head is marked with dark stripes that extend from its snout that may break up into spots. It has a dark (or dark-bordered) spot on the back of its head, and its body and tail are usually covered with rows of paler, smaller spots.

Habitat:

Garden in Windwardside, Saba, Dutch Caribbean. In the middle of the island which is a vulcano in the Caribbean.

Notes:

This little one was waving along on the lotus flower in the wind in our garden. At night. That's why the colour is so strange. Had to be taken with a flash light.
