Fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing these pics (and you others as well). It is great to see these geckos and their habitats.
Please share more if you have any, and the time to do so.

Hey! Thomas.

How rare are they in the wild? Let say, how many can you find in a night when you are there?

Thanks for your kind words so far, guys.

@LivingScales, they are very rare as this population is the smallest of the Ryukyus, according to habitat destruction.

Cheers

Thomas
