Oedura argentea is a species of velvet gecko (Diplodactylidae: Oedura ) that has been recently described from the sandstone ranges of central-north Queensland, Australia. [1]
Oedura is a genus of medium to large geckos, lizards in the family Diplodactylidae. The genus is endemic to Australia. Species in the genus are referred to by the common name velvet geckos.
Amalosia rhombifer, also known commonly as the zigzag velvet gecko and the zig-zag gecko, is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Amalosia lesueurii, commonly known as Lesueur's gecko or Lesueur's velvet gecko, is a species of gecko, a lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
The Diplodactylidae are a family in the suborder Gekkota (geckos), with over 150 species in 25 genera. These geckos occur in Australia, New Zealand, and New Caledonia. Diplodactylids are the most ecologically diverse and widespread family of geckos in both Australia and New Caledonia, and are the only family of geckos found in New Zealand. Three diplodactylid genera have recently been split into multiple new genera.
Amalosia is a genus of lizards in the family Diplodactylidae. The genus is endemic to Australia. It includes four species:
Amalosia jacovae, also known commonly as the clouded gecko or the clouded velvet gecko, is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Velvet gecko can refer to any of the following gecko genera. Some genera are endemic to Australia, while others are endemic to Madagascar. :
Amalosia obscura, also known commonly as the slim velvet gecko is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
Lucasium is a genus of lizards, sometimes called ground geckos, in the family Diplodactylidae. The genus is endemic to Australia, and it includes 14 species.
Oedura bella, sometimes called the gulf marbled velvet gecko, is a species of geckos endemic to Queensland and Northern Territory in Australia.
The northern velvet gecko is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Queensland in Australia.
Oedura cincta, or inland marbled velvet gecko, is an Australian species of gecko.

The southern spotted velvet gecko, also known commonly as Tryon's velvet gecko, is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
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.
The Congoo gecko is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
The golden-eyed gecko is a species of lizard in the family Diplodactylidae. The species is endemic to Australia.
