Sphaerodactylus Plummeri (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sphaerodactylus plummeri is a species of Sphaerodactylus, a very small gecko found in the Dominican Republic. It was first described in 1992 and named after one of the collectors. Sphaerodactylus is a genus of geckos from the Americas that are distinguished from other gekkoninae by their small size and round, rather than vertical eye pupils and each digit terminating in a single, round adhesive pad or scale, from which their name (Sphaero = round, dactylus = finger) is derived. All species in this genus are rather small, but two species, S. ariasae and S. parthenopion, are tiny, and - with a snout-vent length of about 1.6 cm (0.6 in)-the smallest reptiles in the world.
