Notes
This gecko was seen on the exterior building walls of a reptile importer in Apr 2005. The site was visited again in Nov 2007 with only 2 individuals sighted .
I think that this species is established, but long term success may be diminished / prevented by the presence of larger predatory geckos - Hemidactylus mabouia & Gekko gecko.
