The superbly camouflaged Kinabalu Gliding Gecko (Gekko rhacophorus) is endemic to the montane forests of Mount Kinabalu in northern Borneo. This poorly-known species is a nocturnal insectivorous tree-dweller and, like other geckos of this genus, possesses skin flaps to assist in a parachuting flight. Sabah, Malaysia (Borneo).
