Goodluck I have been trying for a long time to get some and I know of nobody that is working with them what a shame they are stunning.

If you contact mergus or dendrophel on the boards either of them would be able to tell you if it is possible to find these in the hobby or not.

Thank you for the information so far.

Maybe in future it's the same like with L. williamsi. I saw a picture of them in 2004 and wanted to have some and then in 2007 importing started, now ending in dumping prices and high import rates. But maybe L. fischeri is harder to find...

Does anyone actually have any pictures or disciption of this species? I have previously been looking on the internet - and again now. All I can find is a single picture (this one http://www.nephrurus.org/images/Lygo...20fischeri.JPG
but who says that the picture is even correct?

I read somewhere that this species was often mixed up with L. conraui, but I don't think the gecko on the above link resembles L. conraui very much - if at all.

I found some more info (unfortunately it is on french - I guess you german people will love that? )

L. fischeri here:
Atlas des reptiles du Cameroun - L. fischeri
(An image of the gecko should appear if you scroll down.)

L. conraui here:
Atlas des reptiles du Cameroun - L. conraui
(An image of the gecko should appear if you scroll down.)

Comparing the two above links to this one Lygodactylus cf conraui

If you compare the "right" pictures it seems that L. conraui might look a lot like L. fischeri
However if you compare the "wrong" pictures one is olive and the other black/brown..

I am getting seriously confused...
Any inputs?

Thank you, that is a nice link to that online-book. But I am confused of that pictures, too. Maybe they confound the pictures of L. fischeri and L. conraui in this book!?
