Rhinogekko de Witte, 1973 View in CoL View at ENA

A very little known genus containing only two species with the distribution restricted to Iran and Pakistan. Szczerbak & Golubev (1986) placed it in the synonymy of Agamura . Contrary to them, Anderson (1999) did not find any of the representatives closely related to A. persica and considered the genus Rhinogekko justified. Most authors misspell the genus name to Rhinogecko [sic] ( Khan 2002, 2004; Rastegar-Pouyani et al. 2008; Sindaco & Jeremčenko 2008; Moradi et al. 2011; Masroor 2012; Bauer et al. 2013). Nevertheless, the name is derived from the etymon Gekko and must be spelled Rhinogekko as given in the original description.
