Hokou Gecko

The Hokou Gecko is a small gecko, approximately 6cm from snout to vent, with brown, grey or tan coloration and darker bands across the back and tail. Small granular scales and subconical tubercles cover its upper surface, while a large undivided tubercle occurs on each side of the tail base. (Wikipedia, general species account)

This nocturnal, arboreal insect-eater occupies forests, forest edges, shrubs, rocky places and urban habitats below 1,000m in eastern China, Taiwan and southern Japan. Breeding occurs mainly from April through August, and females may produce several small clutches. Genetic work indicates that some morphologically similar populations currently assigned to the species may be distinct. (Wikipedia, general species account)
