Northern spiny-tailed geckos (Strophurus ciliaris) are an incredible species from arid Northern regions of Australia. This species is arboreal, spending almost all of it’s time resting or climbing on thin branches. They are nocturnal but generally do not hide and sleep during the day fully exposed. Since this species is adapted to the extreme conditions of northern Australia they are quite hardy and tolerant of a variety of conditions. Daytime temperatures should be in the 90s and nightime temps

A very underrated gecko that deserves more attention in herpetoculture: the Northern spiny-tailed gecko (Strophurus ciliaris). They are very hardy and simple to keep and breed. They are nocturnal but bask openly during the day making them visible 24/7. The species originates from the deserts of Australia. #reptiles #herpetoculture #geckos #livingart | Living Art by Frank Payne

Spiny-tailed geckos are unusual in that they are nocturnal. They're also one of the few creatures that can see color at night—thanks to special cells in their eyes that are 350 times more sensitive than human vision. Catch a new episode of Deadly Australians, tonight at 8/7c! | Smithsonian Channel

Tasting eyes > tasting flies! This gecko is performing a crucial survival tactic. With no eyelids, geckos rely on the moisture from licking their eyes to keep their vision crisp. They are highly dependent on vision for finding food and avoiding predators, so keeping their eyes clean is key to their success. 📹 Northern Spiny-tailed Gecko, found during surveys at AWC's Newhaven Wildlife Sanctuary.
