Fischer's dwarf gecko

Fischer's dwarf gecko (Lygodactylus fischeri) is a species of lizard in the family Gekkonidae. The species is native to West Africa and Central Africa.

Etymology
The specific name, fischeri, is in honor of German herpetologist Johann Gustav Fischer.

Geographic range
L. fischeri is found in Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon, and southeast Nigeria, with a single, isolated record from Benin. The record from Sierra Leone is questionable.

Ecology
L. fischeri is a rare and highly cryptic species occurring in closed humid forest and gallery forest. It is probably an insectivore feeding on ants.

Description
Dorsally, L. fischeri is light olive green, with several longitudinal series of small black dots. Ventrally, it is uniformly white. The holotype has a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of 3.5 cm.

Reproduction
L. fischeri is oviparous.
