Don't take this as the only answer, but it looks like a gargoyle, or giant gecko to me.

 

[GECKOFREAK]

Looks like a Chahoua to me

[Bodon]

a chahoua with a smile.

Beautiful "chahoua with a smile."


Love that color!

is that the guy also referred to as "the poor man's leechie"? I was very tempted to buy one at the last reptile show I went to, but because I had no set up or knowledge I forced myself to leave without him.

He sure is cute. What did you name him?

A "poor man's leachie" is a gecko from the genus Geyhra. Almost all of these sold are actually G. marginata, but they are all too often sold as G. Vorax--there is only one true pair of Fiji Island G. vorax in the U.S.

The gecko in the pic is definately R. chahoua, and a gorgeous one at that...they are the best 'pet' gecko I've ever had the pleasure of keeping, and they're super cute to top it off If you truly love geckos, these guys are a must-have.

thanks Brian...once again I'm off to look up the species you listed to kill my curiousity.
