A few months ago I saw some geckos labelled Hemidactylus tropidolepis.
According to the EMBL database, they are native to Somalia, Ethiopia and
Kenya. What I found interesting was that each of the dozen or so animals
had an entirely different color pattern. They were basically light and
dark brown, but the amount and arrangement of each color was extremely
variable.
Has anyone here worked with this species? They were all on the substrate.
Is this a ground-dwelling species?
Are all Hemidactylus basically aggressive little critters that do badly
in groups unless there's a *lot* of space?
