Comments: We here include the four species included in the analyses of Macey
et al.
(2000) and this paper, as well as the three species assigned to
Carinatogecko
by Sindaco & Jeremčenko (2008) and Torki (2011). We follow Červenka & Kratochvíl (2010) in assigning
Cyrtopodion dehakroense
to
Mediodactylus
, and Khan (2003c, 2006, 2009) in assigning
walli
to this genus. The inclusion of
Cyrtopodion brachykolon
to
Mediodactylus
is based on the results presented in this paper.
