Hello everyone!

Ususally you'd find me in Australian geckos section but I need help from someone here to ID attached gecko for me. I found in NW Ghana, in a place close to the Togo border.

Thanks so much,

Bluemchen

That is the wide ranging Hemidactylus angulatus, formerly H. brooki. There is a lot of variation in these geckos, likely indicative of cryptic species. Do you have any notes or photos of the habitat? Was it found on the ground, or in an arboreal setting?

To Danscantle: Well, it was sitting on a ceiling at the place I was staying. However, the surroundings were more or less rainforest-like. I have attached a picture.
