A few frames from a recent photoshoot of one of our rare native geckos – this one is a Lewis Pass Green Gecko (Naultinus tuberculatus); a real cutie licking his eyeball

    Great image Rob.
    Love the animation.
    The specific name “poecilochlorus” has been dropped & this species relegated into Naultinus tuberculatus.
    I also do alot of photogarphy on New Zealand native lizards, I love seeing your images.

    Thanks Philip. Hard to keep up with all the changes.

    great shot ! Is this in fact a tuberculatus from the Lewis Pass region or a specimen from an further west area ?
    Thanks
    Flo

    It should be tuberculatus.
