Order: Squamoses (Squamata)
Family: Geckos (Gekkonidae)
- It is distributed on the extreme north of Madagascar island.
- The life span is up to 10 years.
- The green colouration is a camouflage, it makes the lizard invisible among the green foliage. The pupil is round, as in all day geckoes. Males are very territorial and aggressive to strangers, that is why often also females suffer from their bites. They lay eggs in the axils of plants, in some time after it they harden and firmly adhere to the leaves.
