Hemidactylus paucifasciatus

Hemidactylus paucifasciatus is a gecko found in Odisha, India. It is relatively large for its genus, with the largest measured at 117.7 mm, and typically reddish-brown or rust-coloured. A row of raised bumps runs along its back, the tail is large relative to the body, and the knees have a distinct cone-like shape (Wikipedia, general species account).

It typically prefers hills and valleys in the countryside. The account gives scale counts on its front side of 32 to 35.
