外見

The Rhacodactylus ciliatus is a medium-sized gecko named for the distinctive fringed crests running over its eyes, resembling eyelashes, and down its back. Its skin can be smooth or textured, often showcasing earthy tones like brown, orange, and red, sometimes with white or yellow patterns, making it visually distinct from many other geckos.

おもしろい事実

These geckos were thought extinct for over 100 years until rediscovered in 1994!

They are often called 'Eyelash Geckos' because of the crests above their eyes.

They use their tongues to taste the air around them, just like a snake!

Unlike many lizards, their tail will not grow back if it is dropped off!
