That is a flame/fire morph. There is some patterning to the sides and limbs, but not enough to make it a harlequin.

do the dots make her a dalmation or would thier haveto be more and do you know why some are red?

Personally I'd say that she's a harlequin with dalmatian spots (yes I know she doesn't have much patterning on her sides but I think that having any patterning on the sides counts as a harlequin - with the flame color pattern having no pattern on the sides at all - otherwise it is just an arbitrary decision and therefore needlessly confusing). Her having dalmatian spots does technically make her a dalmatian but most people only refer to geckos as being of the dalmatian morph if the have more spots and no other striking patterns. Dalmation spots can be black or red- that's is just the color they are.

Personally, I don't call them dalmations unless there is a significant amount of dots. I wouldn't call yours a dalmation, just a flame. Dalmations spots can be any color really...there are black, red, and sometimes even green.

I agree with Salzy, there is just not enough patterning on the sides and limbs to call it a harlequin.

The thing is that beyond the bare basics there really isn't much...regularity (?)... to crested gecko morphs and colors. I say that any gecko with pattern on its sides is a harlequin, you say there has to be a certain a mount for the gecko to qualify. Neither of us is really right or really wrong because there are really no official guidelines, everyone uses thier own system - I accept that (it really get muddy when you get into the reds-oranges-yellows color wise). Personal opinion is what it comes down to in the end.
