Basic stats

Range

South Indian hills: Palni, Anamalai and Tirunelveli

The Anamalay gecko, also called the Anaimalai dravidogecko, is a gecko found in the South Indian hills of the Palni, Anamalai and Tirunelveli ranges. It was assigned to the genus Dravidogecko when that genus was resurrected in 2019, after a study suggested it had a separate origin from the other Hemidactylus species (Wikipedia, general species account).

The Reptile Database lists the Valparai Plateau in Coimbatore district, Tamil Nadu. The account used here gives no further detail.
