The Asian House Gecko
The Asian House Gecko (Hemidactylus frenatus) is the global gecko equivalent of the cane toad — a successful invader that has spread further and faster than anyone expected. Its arrival in Sydney is a sign of broader environmental change, and a reminder that the city's reptile fauna is not static. Identifying it correctly is the first step in deciding what, if anything, to do about it.
The Broad-Tailed Gecko
The broad tailed gecko is one of Sydney’s most fascinating nocturnal reptiles. Found hiding beneath sandstone outcrops and loose bark throughout the Greater Sydney region, most people walk straight past them without ever knowing they are there.
