Cyrtodactylus inthanon

Cyrtodactylus inthanon

Cyrtodactylus inthanon, or the Inthanon Bent-toed Gecko, is a nocturnal, insectivorous lizard native to the mountainous regions of northern Thailand, known for its adaptations to high-altitude moist montane forests and its distinctive color patterns that provide excellent camouflage. With an average length of 10 to 15 centimeters, this vulnerable species plays a vital role in its ecosystem by controlling insect populations while also serving as prey for larger animals.
