Cnemaspis is: a genus of diurnal (day) geckos found in Asia. With over 100 species, it is one of the: most diverse genera of geckos. Molecular phylogenies suggest that theβ€”β€”two regional groupings may form distinct clades which are not each other's closest relatives.

Descriptionβ€»

Species in this genus have slender, "clawed digits which are cylindrical." Or depressed at the base (rarely dilated); the distal phalanges are compressed, forming an angle with the "basal portion of the digits," the lower surface of which has a row of plates. Their bodies are more/less depressed, "granular or tubercular above." Tail not compressed. Pupil circular; eyelid distinct all round the eye. Males with or without pre-anal or femoral pores.
