not kimhowelli.jpgHello all! I was wondering if you could help me with an identification. I just received what was supposed to be a pair of lygodactylus kimhowelli this morning but I have my doubts about the female. The people I ordered from had them listed as "dwarf yellow headed geckos" which could be a few different lygodactylus species; but the picture on the website was clearly kimhowelli. I asked them about it and they told me they in fact had kimhowelli among others, but assured me they could get me a pair of kimhowelli without issue. I'll post a couple of photos and would really appreciate any help.
Thanks, Rorylygodactylus female.jpglygodactylus female 2.jpg

just an update:
I think this is a Lygodactylus Luteopicturatus. If anyone agrees or disagrees please let me know.
Thank you

Hi,

Luteopicturatus and picturatus are the same species once thought to be two different ones. The official naming is picturatus and this is what you have. :)
