Oedura

Oedura is a genus of medium to large geckos, lizards in the family Diplodactylidae.

Geckos of the genus Oedura are mostly arboreal and nocturnal, and have flattened bodies that are distinctly patterned.

They are secretive tree or rock dwellers, usually concealing themselves beneath peeling bark or in cracks and crevices.

A species found in the Kimberley region, Oedura filicipoda, is named for the plumose fringing on the toes that may assist in clinging to rocky overhangs.

[3] The type species for the genus is Oedura marmorata, first described by John Edward Gray in 1842.

Oedura lesueurii now belongs to the genus Amalosia
