Thanks, take your time, if need be. And never mind the locals troubled by your flashlights in their backyards,
who fu..s them, tell them it's of a cosmic importance for our species and its science... or just ignore them.
Good luck.

Paul, is this the original picture of the gecko?
looks very smooth, much to smooth for a H. turcicus. The ringed tail points to a young individual.

Maybe just a blurred picture? Hope there are more, in better resolution.

Sadly its the only one i managed to get they were quite fast and shy. Now its very blurry but the gecko had little knob on his back just like a H. Turcicus if you want to, I can send you two the address of the apartment as private message where i found them. The owners said that they were there longer and that there were quite many
And this one was very small so a juvenile there also were bigger ones but they were too far up the Wall and to fast for Fotos sadly
