Description
Marbled Slender-toed Gecko is a type of gecko species that exist in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. It is typified by the absence of some characteristics such as it does not possess spiny tubercles either on the ventrolateral folds or on the tail, it has no enlarged subcaudals and no pubic groove, males lack femoral pores and at most four preanal pores may be present. The coloration of dorsal is fawn to dark brown with darker markings and usually arranged in longitudinal series or lines. This gecko inhabits on tree trunks, saplings and high earth-banks along streams and trails. The arthropods are the diet of this gecko (Das, 2010).
