Comment 
EtymologyNamed after Latin “disjunctus”, an adjective in the nominative singular, masculine gender, meaning “dijunct”, “remote”, and is given in reference to the approximately 600 km wide hiatus across the Gulf of thailand separating Cyrtodactylus disjunctus sp. nov. from the other members of the intermedius group in central Indochina.
