Cyrtopodion (22 species)

Distribution: northeastern Egypt, Sinai, eastern Turkey, Israel, Jordan, Syria, Azerbaijan, Arabian Peninsula, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Central Asia, Pakistan, northern India, introduced on Red Sea coast of Africa

Comments: We include the apparently monophyletic agamuroides clade sensu Anderson (1999) (taxa marked by asterisks) within Cyrtopodion based on the phylogenetic results of Červenka et al. (2010). All members of Indogekko sensu Khan (2003c) except longipes and voraginosus are also subsumed within Cyrtopodion (see text). We suggest the use of Indogekko as a subgeneric name for most of those species assigned to it by Khan (2003c) (taxa marked by hash mark above).
