Actually it reminds me of C. collegalensis and I also understood that geckoella was a sub genera of cyrotodactylus. But May be wrong...on both accounts lol

You are right on both accounts David I have also found a couple other geckoella that look similar as well as some cyrtodactylus. The only thing is the genus division is not well defined and was to break up only for its size more than a need to seperate from cyrtodactylus.

Looks a lot like C. peguensis. Am I wrong?

It is not Cyrtodactylus peguensis zebraicus imported recently. Too small and pattern is very different, even if similar. It even looks different than the true Cyrtodactylus peguensis peguensis thats not imported, but would be a closer match to this sub.
There are other geckoella and cyrtodactylus once labeled peguensis in the past, later to take other species status...this including jumping to the genus geckoella.
If pattern and basic form was the only factor (what we mostly see in this washed out picture), then Hemidactylus(correction Geckoella) triedrus would still be Cyrtodactylus triedrus along with others. I think we need some for inspection and more pictures to get a better idea.

Shane, just correct me if I'm wrong but you meant Geckoella triedrus instead of Hemidactylus triedrus.

correction...

Yes on the Geckoella...I did want to say Geckoella AND that Hemidactylus could be as well if we based our classification on this type of picture but typing fast got me a little slurred in my mixing of two thoughts.

When I get some of these I will do a comparison shot between the new gecko and recent pegu, imports. I believe they will be significantly different...then leave the scientific up to those entitled to labeling our geckos. I would just stir the pool so much everyone will hate me if I go too far on an already touchy subject.
