Northern Leaf Tailed Gecko
Phyllurus cornutus

A beautifully patterned gecko that remains motionless throughout the day totally confident of its camouflage. The Northern Leaf Tailed Gecko is found on lower Cape York Peninsula with isolated populations along the eastern coast and ranges to the central coast of NSW. This photo was taken at Thylogale Nature Refuge while it was on the trunk of an Evodia (Euodia elleryana)

 

Size: 160 mm (snout-vent)
