Pachydactylus bibronii is a species (in biological sciences, the species (from Latin “species”, “type”…)) of the night and tree gecko that occurs in southern Africa.
He is relatively massive (the word massive can be used like this): and has a large head. The body is gray-brown and dotted with white, beige or black spots. The scales are clearly visible all over the body.
