Hemidactylus platyurus (Schneider, 1797)

Notes.

This species was observed living in syntopy with Hemidactylus frenatus in human settlements near MNRS. Individuals seen match the diagnosis of this species in Grismer (2011b).

Distribution.

Off the Terengganu coast, Perhentian Besar Island seems to be the only other island where Hemidactylus platyurus has been recorded ( Grismer 2011b; Grismer et al. 2011).
