ASIAN HERPETOLOGICAL RESEARCH(2020)
Abstract
A new species of gekkonid, Hemiphyllodactylus dupanglingensis sp. nov., is described based on six specimens from Hunan Province, China. The new species is phylogenetically close to H. zugi, H. hongkongensis, II. dushanensis, and II. huishuiensis, and can be distinguished from its congeners by the following combination of characters: 9-11 chin scales; postmental scales enlarged; 9-12 infralabials, 11-14 supralabials; 14-16 dorsal scales and 10-11 ventral scales longitudinally arranged at the midbody contained with one eye diameter; a manual lamellar formula of 4-4-5-4 or 4-5-5-4 and a pedal lamellar formula of 4-5-5-5 or 5-6-6-4; 21-25 continuous precloacal and femoral pores in males.
