Godagedara's Day Gecko

Godagedara's day gecko is a diurnal gecko endemic to Sri Lanka, described in 2019 from Ensalwatte in Matara District at 700 to 800 m, where the forest patch is isolated from the rest of the canopy by streams. It is named for Godagedara Rate Adikaram, who took part in the 1817 to 1818 uprising against British rule, and is closely related to the Hakgala round-eyed gecko. The back is greyish brown with three large irregular cinnamon-brown blotches along the midline, the tail has 12 faded black crossbands, and there are two postorbital stripes on each side (Wikipedia, general species account).
