Material. MOUNT LICO (base): BMNH 2019.2899; MOUNT SOCONE (base): PEM R 23946. Identification. Two species of Hemidactylus are known to occur in northern Mozambique, H. mabouia and H. platycephalus . This material is assigned to the former based on a lower number of preanal pores, smaller body size, and narrow head. The closest match on GenBank is H. mabouia from Annobón, Equatorial Guinea (98% sequence similarity; AY 863038). Comments. This specimen was found on a wall at the Chá Socone tea plantation.
