What
New Caledonian Giant Gecko (Rhacodactylus leachianus)Observer
christianlangnerDescription
The longhorn beetle was attracted
by the beam of the headlight and it was difficult to hold him away from the gecko to get "pure" gecko shot (picture 3)...
keep also attention to the impressive black fronds of the NC endemic fern Ptisana attenuata on which one of the leachianus is sitting on (pictures 2 & 3)
note also the gecko mites (Geckobia) in 5 and the adhesion scales of the original tail-tip in pic 4
