Hemidactylus bouvieri boavistensis Loveridge, 1947 Hemidactylus boavistensis, the Boa Vista leaf-toed gecko, is a species of gecko in the family Gekkonidae.

[2] It had long been considered a subspecies of Hemidactylus bouvieri but was re-elevated as a separate species in 2008.

[1][2] The Boa Vista leaf-toed gecko reaches lengths of 50 mm (2.0 in) from snout to vent.

[2] The head is relatively broad and the snout narrow with a concave or straight profile on the dorsal surface.

[2] Although it is common where it is found, it was listed as a "near threatened" species on the IUCN Red List in 2012 due to its limited distribution, pressures from development, and competition with introduced species such as the house gecko (Hemidactylus angulatus).
