Abstract
A new species of Crytodactylus from Pulau Aur in the Seribuat Archipelago off the southeast coast of Peninsular Malaysia is differentiated from all other Sundaland species in having a unique suite of characteristics involving tuberculation, scale counts, and color pattern. This increases the total number of endemic species in the Seribuat Archipelago to at least 18 and is the second endemic gecko known from Pulau Aur.
