Default Gehyra vorax or g. marginata photo

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum. Presently I own crested geckos: a pair of adults and two babies that i bought. I am going to acquire to more geckos this weekend. they are being advertised as "banana geckos". I have a picture that I will post. Can someone tell me if it is a vorax or maginata? thanks so much for your help.

It is most likely a marginata, from what i read its impossible to get your hands on a vorax.

Agreed, a bigger pic would be better! It does look like a golden gecko from the pic you have posted but, in my humble experience, young female marginata tend to look slightly like goldens, how old is this gecko? Adult male marginata tend to develop orange/red blushing around the underside of their back legs so that would be a tell tale sign though I cant see any in the pic which is why I assumed 'juvenile'...
