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