| Synonym | Cyrtodactylus wakeorum BAUER 2003 Cyrtodactylus wakeorum— AGARWAL et al. 2018 |
| Distribution | Myanmar (Burma, Rakhine Yoma Elephant Range, southern Rakhine State) Type locality: Rakhine Yoma Elephant Range, Gwa, Gwa Township, Rakhine State, Myanmar (17°35’02.4’’N, 94°40’44.2’’E). |
| Reproduction | oviparous |
| Types | Holotype: CAS 221935 |
| Diagnosis | Diagnosis: Cytrodactylus wakeorum may be distinguished from all congeners on the basis of its possession of relatively short limbs and digits, one pair of enlarged postmental scales in broad contact behind mental; dorsum with relatively smooth texture, with 24 longitudinal rows of tubercles, 31 ventral scales across midbody, ventrolateral folds absent, no precloacal groove, 12 precloacal pores in a single series in female holotype, no femoral pores, subcaudal scales not forming broad transverse plates, dorsal pattern of 6 thin dark bands (one nuchal and five between shoulders and sacrum), each bordered posteriorly by a thin white line, and head without dorsal pattern. Cyrtodactylus wakeorum is superficially most similar to C. consobrinoides and, to a lesser extent, C. annandalei. It may be distinguished from the former by its possession of lack of subcaudal transverse plates, and its patternless head dorsum. It differs from the latter in its greater number of dorsal tubercle rows (24 vs 16–18), smaller number of ventral scale rows (31 vs 43), and light borders around only the posterior margins of the dark dorsal markings. Unfortunately the absence of adult male specimens precludes the use of certain precloacal and femoral pore characters which might further distinguish C. wakeorum from its congeners [from BAUER 2003]. Additional details (831 characters) are available for collaborators and contributors. Please contact us for details. |
