Jumping crested gecko. The crested gecko is a mostly arboreal species, preferring to inhabit the canopy of the New Caledonia rainforests. It is able to jump long distances between branches to move to new locations. It is nocturnal, and will generally spend the daylight hours sleeping in secure spots in high branches. [1] [11] [12] [13]
Hybrid of chahoua gecko and crested gecko. Order Crocodilia. Family Crocodylidae. Genus Crocodylus. Hybridization between the endemic Cuban crocodile (Crocodylus rhombifer) and the widely distributed American crocodile (Crocodylus acutus) is causing conservation problems for the former species as a threat to its genetic integrity.

The first gecko-wide genetic analysis found support for a split of Eastern Gondwanaland from Western Gondwanaland and evidence that Eastern Gondwanan lineages of Diplodactylidae, Pygopodidae and Carphodactylidae appear older than lineages in the Gekkonidae. [3] These findings have been upheld and clarified in subsequent dating analyses.
Lesser rough-snouted giant gecko, Rhacodactylus trachycephalus; Willi's giant gecko, Rhacodactylus willihenkeli [2] A revision of the giant geckos of New Caldonia found weak support for inclusion of some taxa allied to this genus, and these have been assigned to new combinations: [3] Correlophus ciliatus, crested gecko; formerly R. ciliatus

Parthenogenesis is a mode of asexual reproduction in which offspring are produced by females without the genetic contribution of a male. Among all the sexual vertebrates, the only examples of true parthenogenesis, in which all-female populations reproduce without the involvement of males, are found in squamate reptiles (snakes and lizards).
