Robust Velvet Gecko - Oedura robusta (Total length including tail: 14cm)
Grey with large, dark-edged, rectangular pale blotches extending from head onto flattened plump tail. Toes expanded to form pads, underside covered with two rows of large plates, including a large circular pair under the tip.
Favours rock-faces and hollows in large, smooth-barked eucalypts, but also thrives in human dwellings.
Common in Brisbane's outer suburbs and surrounding eucalypt woodlands. Mid-eastern Australia.
Photographed Samsonvale, Queensland, Australia.
