Cnemaspis avasabinae, or Sabin's Nellore dwarf gecko, is a species of gecko endemic to India. It is found in the Eastern Ghats.

Description

The species is distinct from all other Cnemaspis species in its small size of 29 mm (or slightly more than 1⅛ in.) from snout to vent. It is coloured grey-pink on the dorsal (back) side and has six pairs of dark brown patches running down its back. Notably, the males of this species lack femoral pores.[1][2][3]

Habitat

The gecko is currently known from only one locality in Andhra Pradesh's Nellore district, in the Velikonda Range of the Eastern Ghats. The locality is near a stream in a dry evergreen forest at an elevation of 200 m above sea level.[1][4]

Habit

The gecko is rock-dwelling, and is active at and just after dusk.[3]
