A Key to the Geckos (Sauria: Gekkonidae) of Florida
@inproceedings{Krysko2005AKT, title={A Key to the Geckos (Sauria: Gekkonidae) of Florida}, author={K. L. Krysko and K. Daniels}, year={2005} }
Currently, there is one native and 10 established non-native gekkonids in Florida. For nearly 100 years, gecko species in Florida have been misidentified because of their similar appearance to other lizards and a lack of well known morphological characters that distinguish each species. Because of the confusion regarding their identifications, we present a key to the gecko species of Florida along with their current geographic distributions.
