Summary[edit]

Description

Uroplatus fimbriatus

Afrikaans: Frontale aansig van 'n Reuseblaarstertgeitjie te Nosy Mangabe, 'n bebosde eiland in die Baai van Antongil, Madagaskar. Nosy Mangabe is 'n klein eiland van 520 hektaar wat meer as 'n kilometer van die naaste kus af geleë is. Sy herpetofauna is egter opvallend soortgelyk aan dié van die reënwoude wat die baai omring, wat aandui dat die eiland tydens ystydperke met die vasteland verbind moes gewees het.
English: Frontal portrait of a Giant Leaf-tailed Gecko from Nosy Mangabe, a forested island in the bay of Antongil. Nosy Mangabe is a small island of 520 hectares, located more than one kilometer away from the nearest coast. Its herpetofauna is strikingly similar to the one of the rainforests surrounding the bay, indicating that the island must have been connected to the mainland during glacial times.
