Description
This crested gecko appears to be in a stare down with the viewer – and I think it’s winning. The crest of skin over its eyes accounts for its Latin name, Correlophus ciliates. Ciliates which means eyelash, and this animal is also popularly known as the eyelash gecko. This lizard is native to New Caledonia, an island in the southwest Pacific Ocean.
