some pic's of my two female cyrtodactylus brevipalmatus/elok

if somebody can identify them with certainties by the same occassion

the smaler female in the day






and in the night







the adult female in the day (sorry just one image)

The first one looks like elok to me, a better pic of the adult female would be helpful. There is so much confusion with this two species, I hope that someone with more knowledge will give his opinion on this geckos.

The two species are quite easy to distinguish, if you look on the ventral side. C. brevipalmatus has clearly visible femoral pores in both sexes, C. elok lacks these pores.

In front I agree Morris!
Here a quotation of Marcus, Afelinus:

"8 years ago I received 3 pairs OF Brevipalmatus.They of acres completely different color and pattern wise.They were much more subtle in color, like A dull brick color, and smaller.No visible pattern, OTHER than around the head.Elok, like you have, acres much more vibrantly colored and more patterned.Larger also.There is taxonomic work in process includes 2 OTHER of species into A that four ssp. complex, quietly tons clarified. That complex includes thesis 2 geckos."


Here a few interesting threads over this problem.

Little ID problem- C. brevipalmatus

Your animals look from here much like elok. In addition almost all defined brevipalmatus are in genuine elok in the European trade. Malaysia has the export of elok stopped, they comes under a wrong name to us!
