Appearance
''P. kuhli'' has adaptations to its skin, including flaps on either side of its body, webbed feet, and a flattened tail to allow it to glide over short distances. These geckos have a remarkable camouflage. The flaps of skin along their sides help them blend with tree bark. Often, the eyes are the only way to see them.Flying geckos, like many other gecko species, have evolved intricate toe pads with microscopic hairs that can adhere to nearly any surface, including glass.
Naming
The specific name, ''kuhli'', is in honor of German zoologist Heinrich Kuhl.Uses
Flying geckos require among other things a 15-20 gallon terrarium and careful handling. They should be handled as little as possible, due to possible damage to their skin. Flying geckos are insectivorous. In captivity, they feed on crickets, mealworms, superworms and waxworms.References:
