Geographic Range [top]
Range Description: There is uncertainty surrounding the distribution of this Asian lizard. It is known to occur in Java, Bali, southeastern Borneo, Nias Island, and Sulawesi in Indonesia, Mindanao in the Philiipines, and Prachin Buri in south-central Thailand (Hallermann 2005).
It may also occur more widely in the Philippine Islands, as there are four specimens that are probably from the archipelago but do not have a specific locality given (Hallermann 2005). De Rooijs 1915 records from the islands of Salibabu, Karakelong and Talaud (all in the Talaud Archipelago) have not been verified, but may be correct. Lastly, the Nicobar Islands locality is incorrect, and its occurrence in southern India at Pondicherry is questionable, although may be due to introduced individuals (Hallermann 2005).
This species is known to occur between 100 and 1,400 m above sea level.
