Gecko ID and neck bumps

[Tristan]

common house gecko? and whats the white lumps?

 

[Australis]

Looks like a female Gehyra species with calcium stored in the neck. Ive never seen storage that significant myself. So hopefully someone else can confirm?

Location would help with I.D.. well for me anyways.

 

[Tristan]

ah location of cause sorry i forgot to add it, its at a friends house in Perth WA

 

[Vincey]

Looks like Christinus marmoratus, pretty feint pattern. Couldnt comment on the bumps.. apart from them looking uncomfortable!

also see them everywhere around my house/friends houses in Perth

 

[Australis]

Ive never seen Christinus so take my comment with a grain of salt.

Christinus marmoratus and the lumps are stored calcium, used in egg laying because this species lays brittle, hard shelled eggs. Hence, this is a female. The eggs do not need to be buried in a moist substrate because they do not dehydrate like parchment eggs.

PS It was photographed at night on a light background which is why it is so light in colour. It has a regrown tail.
