CommentBehavior: diurnal

Sympatry: Cyrtodactylus somroiyot

Abundance: only known from its original description (Meiri et al. 2017). 
EtymologyThe specific epithet lineogularis is derived from the Latin adjective linues for the word ‘‘line’’ and the nominative form of the Latin word gulare meaning ‘‘throat’’ and is in reference to the multiple dark gular lines present in the males of this species.
