I was just curious as to what draws people to Naultinus. Every other post someone claims that they are a dream. For me it's all their characteristics combined as there are other geckos that share certain similarities but not all. I am absolutely amazed at their colour and patern however there are other geckos, Phelsuma come to mind, that have amazing colours. The fact that they are viviparous also fascinates me although there are other species that share this trait. The other NZ genus as well as a couple Rhacs come to mind. The fact that they are diurnal is also a big plus. Yet being diurnal they have vertical pupils which sets them apart. Even their feet are interesting. In my opinion they are the evolutionary gap between terrestrial clawed geckos and geckos with adhesive lamellae. Of coarse their rarity is also appealing. Whether your into cars, guitars or geckos its an obsession to obtain a rare gem. It's all these factors combined that makes these geckos my holy grail and am curious what draws everyone else to them.
