Auckland Green Gecko
The Auckland green gecko (''Naultinus elegans'') is a species of gecko found only in the northern half of the North Island of New Zealand, except north of Whangaroa. The Wellington green gecko, formerly considered a subspecies (together called common green gecko), is found in the southern half of the North Island and the two ranges do not overlap. Its length is up to 145 mm, snout to vent.Naultinus elegans — Auckland Green Gecko
