A new forest-dwelling gecko from Phuket Island, Southern Thailand, related to Cyrtodactylus macrotuberculatus (Squamata: Gekkonidae)

摘要

We describe a new sylvicolous Cyrtodactylus Gray from Phuket Island, southwestern peninsular Thailand, having a banded pattern, precloacal groove, continuous series of enlarged pore-bearing femoro-precloacal scales, and strongly developed tuberculation—characters that distinguish it from all congeneric taxa except C. macrotuberculatus Grismer & Ahmad, 2008 from Peninsular Malaysia, from which it can be separated mainly by having three instead of four dark bands between the limb insertions and a precloacal groove in females.
