Gekko monarchus

Spotted House Gecko

My guide Kurt "Orion" G and I saw several adults of this largish gecko on various buildings on this night, but they all escaped my camera. The only individual I managed to photograph was this tiny baby.
My Travelogues and Trip Lists page includes a complete list of the herps I saw in the wild on this trip to Malaysia, as well as a travelogue of the trip.

This one from a few days later was still not a fully grown adult, but it was quite a bit older and larger.

This gecko was nearly invisible as it hugged the surface of a large boulder.

This tiny baby gecko has already lost its tail. You'd think life on our cabin wall would be cozy and safe.
