Name
Gekko cicakterbang (Grismer, Wood Jr., Grismer, Quah, Thy, Phimmachak, Sivongxay, Seateun, Stuart, Siler, Mulcahy, Anamza & Brown, 2019) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Notes
This gecko was occasionally observed on man-made structures in MNRS. It is nocturnal and apparently has the capability to glide from one tree to another. Until 2019, this species was thought to be conspecific with Ptychozoon lionotum (see Grismer et al. 2019[1] as Ptychozoon cicakterbang). Ptychozoonlater became a subgenus of Gekko (see Wood et al. 2020[2]).
Distribution
Gekko cicakterbang ranges throughout Peninsular Malaysia and its associated islands but in the islands off Terengganu, it has only been found on Perhentian Besar, Redang, and Bidong islands (Grismer 2011b[3]; Grismer et al. 2011[4], 2019[1]).
