Felinus publications + a couple of random pictures

**Graham_s** · #1 (**permalink**) 11-20-2008, 11:17 AM

I was wondering if anyone has any publications on felinus, as i can't seem to find any on the internet, or online through the faculty of science I am part of? I realise that there is hardly any written information on these geckos, but anything, even the original species description paper would be interesting to read. I like to horde information on the geckos I keep

and I've finally managed to sort through some random pictures I took of the felinus (a huge thank you to Mat.si

).

sorry they're not very good, I always worry about stressing them out, so I rarely take photos of the delicate geckos.

also, the photo in the middle wasn't set up deliberately, I was misting the tank and saw the photo opportunity

Cheers

Thanks, I am pleased with how the tail photo came out too

the top photo is of one of the females, the second is the dorsal of the second female (I think) and the last is one of the males. I am pleased with how the tail photo came out too

Thanks for the info about the book. Is it any good, other than the part about felinus?

There was an article in Reptiles magazine last year. I didn't read it but supposedly it was mostly compiled from a lot of info taken/stolen from this forum.

That takes the biscuit a bit. had they asked, they would have got a lot more information from people as well.

I still agree with what you have always said though, that the best and most comprehensive source of information there is on felinus (except for Marcus' brain), is this forum.

Off topic, but great pics

What camera are you using?

Thanks

I'm using the Canon 400D. All of these photos were with the Canon F2.8 100MM EF USM Macro lens. What camera do you use?

Its about time I took some new photos of the animals, so hopefully this weekend, I'll try to get some new ones of the felinus, cf.ebenaui, henkeli, guentheri and eurys. I usually take the most photos of the cilliatus because they are so well behaved for the camera!
