That is a beauty right there Nicolas, and your pics do some serious justice! Hey, what are the different 'locals' or types of grayii? I know this variety with the white patterns surrounded by yellow, but there are also one's with just yellow or just white patterns that I hear about from slightly different area's in NZ do you have any pics of these per chance?

The left one is a female grayii the right one an elegans.

According to the book of Tony Jewell (just the right name for this great book ), the little yellow-lipped form from the top of the North Island should no more be considered as grayii population and would get its own spec.name.

All my grayii do have a SVL about 90 mm and full flat canthal scales so they are the "pure grayii" form ; the color patern is very variable.

I only saw once a "short lived" announcement for yellow lips on a german website ...

But I'm only a "rookie" in the NZ geckos world and some german and austrian breeders should be able to help you better.


NB: sorry for my poor english
