Gunther's gecko 1983
a k a Round Island gecko, Phelsuma guentheri. This is a sensitive species and wasn't officially on display when I visited Jersey Zoo. But this specimen was in one of the exhibits and was unlabelled - but unmistakable. I'm not sure if any of the Jersey-bred animals were ever reintroduced to Round Island or one of its neighbours. Maybe it was not necessary as the wild population recovered when the natural vegetation of the island was renewed. Reptile Centre, Jersey, 4th August 1983. Scanned from a Kodachrome slide.
