Geckos of Southeast Asian Cities

Q: Where is the best place to see Geckos of Southeast Asian Cities?

Yogyakarta. In Yogyakarta, Indonesia, the chance of seeing all 3 (common house gecko, flat-tailed house gecko and tokay gecko) on the same day is about 40%, the highest of the 23 places where all of them live, and over a three-day visit it rises to about 90%. Next come Tasikmalaya (about 20% a day), Makassar (about 20% a day) and Denpasar (about 20% a day). It multiplies each animal's daily chance, as if they were independent, so read it as a rough guide.

Q: Which of Geckos of Southeast Asian Cities is hardest to see?

Common house gecko. In Yogyakarta, the best place for Geckos of Southeast Asian Cities, about about 60% of wildlife watchers report the common house gecko on a given day, against about 80% for the flat-tailed house gecko. The hardest one decides how many days you need.

Q: How do you complete Geckos of Southeast Asian Cities on Wallace's Line?

Mark them as seen. Tick ✓ Seen on each animal's card, add your trips, or link your iNaturalist account. Your passport counts Geckos of Southeast Asian Cities three ways: anywhere in the world, all in one park, and all in a single trip.

Next come Tasikmalaya (about 20% a day), Makassar (about 20% a day) and Denpasar (about 20% a day). It multiplies each animal's daily chance, as if they were independent, so read it as a rough guide.
