Phelsuma laticauda angularis Mertens, 1964 is a diurnal subspecies of geckos.

The Gold dust day gecko feeds on insects and nectar.

Typical for this day gecko are the yellow speckles on the neck and the upper back.

In contrast to the nominate form, there is a wide, irregular, v-shaped marking which points to the head on the lower back.

In captivity, these animals can be fed with crickets, wax moth, fruits flies, mealworms and houseflies.
