Diagnosis 
CommentSimilar species: C. dumnuii, C. muangfuangensis, C. khelangensis, C. brevipalmatus, C. huongsonensis. In addition, Cyrtodactylus tigroides is similar in size, habitus, and, to a lesser extent, color to only two other Thai members of the genus: C. sumonthai and an undescribed new species (see BAUER et al. 2003). It may easily be distinguished from both of these both by details of color and by the configuration of the precloacal and femoral pores.

Abundance: only known from its original description (Meiri et al. 2017). 
EtymologyNamed after the Latin word “tigris” (tiger) and the suffix “–oides” (resembling) and is in reference to the bold banding pattern of this species. The epithet tigris is preoccupied in Cyrtodactylus by Gecko tigris Tytler a subjective synonym of C. rubidus (Blyth).
