Bynoe's Gecko
Heteronotia binoei
The soft and attractive Bynoe's Gecko is considered to be one of
the most abundant geckos in Australia.
Many populations of this reptile are parthenogenetic, being composed
entirely of females, but the Lake Eyre populations are of mixed
sex.
Bynoe's geckos feed on a diet of beetles, spiders and grasshoppers
and are themselves consumed by larger reptiles including legless
lizards.
This gecko is commonly found in towns and settlements throughout
the district.
