Phelsuma madagascariensis

Phelsuma madagascariensis is a species of day gecko that lives in Madagascar. It is among the most widespread day geckos and is found in a wide range of habitats. With a length of up to 30.5 cm, it is also the largest day gecko in Madagascar. (The highly restricted Round Island day gecko is the only other extant species with a similar maximum length; the extinct Rodrigues giant day gecko was even larger.)

Subspecies
There are several subspecies:


 * Phelsuma madagascariensis madagascariensis (Madagascar day gecko)
 * Phelsuma madagascariensis kochi (Koch's giant day gecko)
 * Phelsuma madagascariensis boehmei (Boehme's giant day gecko)

Phelsuma grandis, the Madagascar giant day gecko, was previously considered a subspecies of Phelsuma madagascariensis but has now been elevated to a full species.
