| Diagnosis | Diagnosis: “A genetic lineage forming part of subclade A5 of the subgenus Domerguella. From three other nominal species in subclade A5 (L. miops, and L. guibei and L. winki) it differs by higher longitudinal counts of dorsal scales (253 vs. 170–242) and ventral scales (110 vs. 87–109). From L. fritzi it possibly differs by more strongly expressed lateral tubercles at tail base and a lower longitudinal count of ventral scales (98 vs. 110).” |
| Comment | |
| Etymology | Dedicated to Ulrich “Ulli” Joger, director emeritus of the Braunschweig Natural History Museum, in recognition of his contribution to the taxonomy of reptiles, especially geckos. The species epithet name is defined as a noun in apposition (not a noun in the genitive case) to avoid ending with a non-euphonious double-i. |
