CommentSynonymy: Has been synonymized with Gekko kikuchii by BAUER (1994).

Type species: Gekko mindorensis is the type species of the subgenus Archipelagekko WOOD et al. 2019, 2020.

Definition (subgenus Archipelagekko): Archipelagekko is a maximum crown-clade name referring to the clade originating with the most recent common ancestor of Gekko (Archipelagekko) athymus and includes all extant species that share a more recent common ancestor with these taxa than with any of the type species of other subgenera recognized here. 
EtymologyThe species was named after the type locality.

The subgenus Archipelagekko is a masculine noun, derived from the English noun Archipelago, in recognition of the observation that nearly all contained taxa are restricted to the Philippine Archipelago.
