Ebenavia robusta
—
Greater Clawless Gecko


I had not seen any of this interesting-looking group of geckos on my two previous trips to Madagascar, so I was particularly eager to see one this time. With master herp-finder José Vieira on our team, I needn't have worried. He found the first one very quickly, and several more throughout the rest of our trip.
Here is a list of all the reptiles and frogs I saw on this 2023 trip to Madagascar.
