Gekko aaronbaueri, a new gecko (Squamata: Gekkonidae) from central Laos.
A new species of the genus Gekko Laurenti is described from central Laos. The species is distinguished from its congeners by its moderate size, i.e. maximum SVL 80.0 mm, dorsal pattern of five to six dirty white vertebral spots alternating with yellowish-edged, W-shaped blotches between nape and sacrum and six to seven pairs of dirty white spots interspersed with yellowish-edged dark blotches o...
متن کاملMechanical analyses on the digital behaviour of the Tokay gecko (Gekko gecko) based on a multi-level directional adhesion model.
This paper proposes a multi-level hierarchical model for the Tokay gecko (Gekko gecko) adhesive system and analyses the digital behaviour of the G. gecko under macro/meso-level scale. The model describes the structures of G. gecko's adhesive system from the nano-level spatulae to the sub-millimetre-level lamella. The G. gecko's seta is modelled using inextensible fibril based on Euler's elastic...
متن کاملThe Interrelationship between Pulmonary Mechanics and the Spontaneous Breathing Pattern in the Tokay Lizard, Gekko Gecko
The normal breathing pattern of the Tokay gecko (Gekko gecko) consists of single breaths or bursts of a few breaths separated by periods of breath holding. Increases in pulmonary ventilation that accompany rises in body temperature are caused by increases in respiratory frequency due to shortening of the periods of breath holding. Tidal volume and breath duration remain relatively constant. Mea...
متن کاملKaryotype Reorganization in the Hokou Gecko (Gekko hokouensis, Gekkonidae): The Process of Microchromosome Disappearance in Gekkota
The Hokou gecko (Gekko hokouensis: Gekkonidae, Gekkota, Squamata) has the chromosome number 2n = 38, with no microchromosomes. For molecular cytogenetic characterization of the gekkotan karyotype, we constructed a cytogenetic map for G. hokouensis, which retains the ancestral karyotype of Gekkota, with 86 functional genes, and compared it with cytogenetic maps for four Toxicofera species that h...
