His name is Muy Feo.
Yikes, that is really a very different looking thing. Hope someone knows what it is.

It's definitly a banded gecko - note thickness of tail tells you how healthy it is - also note the cute little interlocking eyelids to keep sand out!

He's beautiful!
Nice find. Keep him around and you may have fewer bugs. I hear they can lick their eyeballs.
BTW the Neanderthal commercial is better, luv.

Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder.
But I sure would keep it around for bug detail.
