Nephrurus vertebralis, also known as midline knob-tailed gecko, is a species of gecko. [1] Like all species of Nephrurus is endemic to Australia.
Gekko is a genus of Southeast Asian geckos, commonly known as true geckos or calling geckos, in the family Gekkonidae. Although species such as Gekko gecko are very widespread and common, some species in the same genus have a very small range and are considered rare or endangered. Fossils, including Yantarogekko, date back to the Eocene.
The knob-tailed geckos or knob-tails, are a group of species of geckos, all found in the genus Nephrurus.
Underwoodisaurus is a small genus of Australian geckos, commonly known with the species Uvidicolus sphyrurus as thick-tailed geckos. The species Underwoodisaurus milii is often called the thick-tailed gecko.
Poyntonophrynus vertebralis is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is found in South Africa, Lesotho, and possibly Botswana and southeastern Zimbabwe. It has many common names: pigmy toad, pygmy toad, flat toad, African dwarf toad, and southern pygmy toad.
Pristimantis vertebralis is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to the Andes of Ecuador and occurs in the Carchi, Imbabura, Pichincha, Cotopaxi, Bolívar, and Azuay provinces. Common name vertebral robber frog has been coined for it.
Amietia vertebralis, also known as Maluti river frog, aquatic river frog, ice frog, large-mouthed frog, or water frog, is a species of frogs in the family Pyxicephalidae. It is an aquatic high-altitude species found in Lesotho and adjacent South Africa.
Nephrurus deleani, also known commonly as the acacia knob-tailed gecko or the Pernatty knob-tailed gecko, is a species of gecko, a lizard in the family Carphodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Nephrurus amyae, also known as the centralian rough knob-tailed gecko, is a species of gecko. It is the largest gecko in the genus Nephrurus, and like all species of Nephrurus is endemic to Australia.
Nephrurus stellatus, also known as the stellate knob-tailed gecko, starry knob-tailed gecko, or southern knob-tailed gecko, is a species of gecko in the family Carphodactylidae. It is endemic to southern Australia.
The Carphodactylidae are a family of geckos (Gekkota) consisting of 30 described species. All species occur in Australia.
Lucasium byrnei, commonly known as the gibber gecko or Byrne's gecko, is a species of small, nocturnal gecko, a lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
The smooth knob-tailed gecko is a type of gecko and may refer to:
Nephrurus asper, also known as rough knob-tailed gecko or spiny knob-tailed gecko is a species of gecko. Like all species of Nephrurus is endemic to Australia.
Nephrurus laevissimus, also known as the smooth knob-tailed gecko , is a species of gecko. Like all species of Nephrurus, it is endemic to Australia.
Nephrurus sheai, also known commonly as the Kimberley rough knob-tailed gecko and the northern knob-tailed gecko, is a species of lizard in the family Carphodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Nephrurus wheeleri, also known commonly as the banded knob-tailed gecko, the southern banded knob-tailed gecko, and Wheeler's knob-tailed gecko, is a species of lizard in the family Carphodactylidae. The species, like all species of Nephrurus, is endemic to Australia.
Gekko vertebralis is a species of gecko. It is endemic to the Ryukyu Islands.
Pygopodoidea is a gecko superfamily and the only taxon in the gekkotan subclade Pygopodomorpha. The clade includes three Australasian families: Diplodactylidae, Carphodactylidae, and Pygopodidae. Traditional gekkotan systematics had considered Diplodactylidae and Carphodactylidae as subfamilies of the family Gekkonidae, but recent molecular work have placed Pygopodidae within Gekkonidae making it paraphyletic. These analyses have shown support of Pygopodidae and Carphodactylidae being sister taxa, with Diplodactylidae occupying a basal position in Pygopodoidea.
Nephrurus cinctus, also known as northern banded knob-tailed gecko, is a species of gecko. Like all species of Nephrurus is endemic to Australia.
