چکیده
A new species of Cyrtodactylus is described from the southern Western Ghats India. It distinguished all collegalensis complex in colour pattern and resembles Srilankan endemic C. yakhuna overall colouration. Phylogenetic analysis mitochondrial ND2 DNA sequences indicates that most closely related to differs them by an uncorrected pairwise genetic distance 10.5–12.9%.
