Naultinus Grayii
Northland Green Gecko
Naultinus grayii, also known as the Gray’s green gecko, is an arboreal gecko endemic to New Zealand. Diurnal, calm and beautifully green, it is rare in captivity and highly sought after by enthusiasts.


General Characteristics

Naultinus grayii is a rare and iconic arboreal gecko from New Zealand, known for its striking green coloration and diurnal lifestyle.
It naturally inhabits coastal forests, native shrubs and dense vegetation in the northern parts of the North Island, particularly in the regions of Northland, Coromandel and Bay of Plenty.
Discreet, calm and highly adapted to life in the canopy, this gecko uses its prehensile tail to move among branches and blend into the foliage.
Protected in its native country, it remains extremely rare in captivity and is kept almost exclusively by experienced breeders specialising in New Zealand species.
Its husbandry requires a cool, well-ventilated environment with abundant vegetation, along with careful attention to humidity and UVB lighting.
