Short-limbed bend-toed gecko

The short-limbed bend-toed gecko is a species of gecko. The gecko is distinguished from others due to its distinctly short limbs, stout body and large head. In appearance it is similar to Altiphylax stoliczkai and Altiphylax baturensis.
The name of the gecko comes from Greek brachys meaning short and kolon meaning limb.
These species currently have only been known to exist in north-western Pakistan. The species has been found in the Chir pine forests and grasslands at elevations from 1200 to 1981 m.
