Fair go Scott. I fail to see how clarification makes for confusion.
There are more than just people who live in the Alice reading this. Therefore the diagnostic features of Gehyra should be clearly spelt out. For the same reasons, the difference between confusing genera should also be highlighted.
According to your own logic, why mention the likehood of species other than frenatus being in Australia, given that I did go to species level of Hemidactylus.
I might add, that given there are a couple of confirmed records of Hemidactlyus within 200 km of Alice Springs, it will only be be a matter of time before they arrive there, if they are not already present.
