Two new species of geckos from Honduras and resurrection of Sphaerodactylus continentalis Werner from the synonymy of Sphaerodactylus millepunctatus Hallowell (Reptilia, Squamata, Gekkonoidea, Sphaerodactylidae)

摘要

We performed a morphological and molecular study on various Honduran populations of the Sphaerodactylus millepunctatus complex. As a result, we resurrect S. continentalis from the synonymy of S. millepunctatus and describe two new species from the Islas de la Bahia. Our results also suggest the possibility that other cryptic species might occur in our concept of S. continentalis.
