Siwaligekko [see Cyrtodactylus]

Comments: We synonymize Siwaligekko with Cyrtodactylus based on our phylogenetic results and those of Wood et al. (2012). Siwaligekko is applicable at a subgeneric level to those species most closely related to C. battalensis; however, given the uncertainty of relationships among basal Cyrtodactylus (recovered as paraphyletic in this paper), we suggest that Siwaligekko be retained as a subgeneric name for all members of the genus occurring in the western Himalayan region. Khan’s (2003) inclusion of Geckoella in Siwaligekko is not supported, but this genus is also embedded within Cyrtodactylus sensu lato (Wood et al. 2012).
