Gekkonidae
Size snout to vent : 6.5 cm / total length : 12 cm Flattened body, lateral skin flaps along the sides of the body and a flattened tail help to minimize shadows. These features also allow the gecko to undertake some rudimentary gliding as it moves from one tree trunk to the next. Its colouration is highly variable, ranging from mottled grey to brown or reddish : the species is able to match its colour to blend with the substrate on which it lies concealed, and its rough, textured skin blends well with different types of tree bark.
Spotted at Tana Toraja area - Sulawesi.
