Südlicher und Nördlicher Flechtengecko

Perfectly camouflaged and heart-meltingly cute: The strange mossy geckos from the remote South Sea islands of New Caledonia were practically unknown in this country until recently. Then, some specimens came into the hands of experienced terrarium keepers under the name Eurydactylodes, and they achieved one of the most spectacular successes in terraristics: In a short time, they managed to breed this rare species so effectively that it soon became one of the most popular geckos overall. A perfect alternative for fans of quirky, charming, and characterful geckos who find their famous relatives, the New Caledonian giant geckos, simply too large. In this "Species for Species" book, top authors on the subject share firsthand accounts from the natural habitat and discuss the successful care and breeding of the mossy geckos, which are now divided into two species.
