    Mentawai and Andaman and Nicobar speciesare not conspecific with the Sri Lankanspecies. Dring (1979), in his key to the genusfor Southeast Asia included Taylor's mysorien-sis in the synonymy of kendallii.

    nemaspis is a speciose genus of gekkonids,and a large number of species have beendescribed in recent years from southern andsoutheastern Asia (compare Kluge, 1993,2001; Bauer, 2003; to Wermuth, 1966). Wereport here a new species of the genus fromPhuket Island, southern Thailand. This spe-cies has been earlier reported as C. kandianaby Cox et al. (1998) and Cnemaspis sp. inGrossmann and Tillack (2000).

    MATERIALS AND METHODSSpecimens were hand-collected. The holo-type was photographed in life and fixed in for-malin, before storage in ethanol. The follow-ing measurements were taken ca. 18 monthsafter collection with a MitutoyoTMdial caliper

    (to the nearest 0.1mm): snout-vent length(SVL; from tip of snout to vent); tail length(TL; from vent to tip of unregenerated tail);tail width (TW; measured at base of tail); headlength (HL; distance between posterior edge oflast supralabial and snout-tip); head width(HW; measured at angle of jaws); head depth(HD; maximum height of head, from occiputto throat); ear length (EL; greater ear length);forearm length (FA; distance between thepalm and elbow); eye diameter (ED; greatestdiameter of orbit); eye to nostril distance (E-N; distance between anteriormost point ofeyes and nostrils); eye to snout distance (E-S;distance between anteriormost point of eyesand tip of snout); eye to ear distance (E-E;distance from anterior edge of ear opening toposterior corner of eyes); internarial distance(IN; distance between nares); and interorbitaldistance (IO; shortest distance between orbits).Scale counts and external observations ofmorphology were made using an OlympusSZX9 dissecting microscope. Notes on colourin life are from colour swatches of F. B. Smith(1975; 1981).

    Comparative material examined is shown inthe Appendix. Additional sources of informa-tion on character states include: Smith (1935),Nicholls (1949), Dring (1979), Das (1993),Manthey and Grossmann (1997), Das andBauer (1998), Bauer and Das (1998), and Dasand Grismer (2003). Catalogue numbers ofspecimens deposited in the Raffles Museum ofBiodiversity Research, National University ofSingapore, Singapore, are preceded by ZRCinstead of USDZ as formerly proposed byLeviton et al. (1985). The other institutionalabbreviations follow Leviton et al. (1985).

Onlyopposing suites of characters are listed.

One of these,

    Cnemaspis limi from Pulau Tioman, PahangState, can be differentiated from the new Thaispecies in being significantly larger-SVL to88.2mm; supranasals in contact; supralabials11-14; and scales on forearm smooth. Thesecond Seribuat species, C. baueri, is fromPulau Aur, Johor State, and differs from thenew species in being much larger, SVL to 64.9mm; fourth toe longer than fifth; lamellaeunder toe IV 26-27; supralabials 11-13; scaleson forearm smooth; and caudal bands absent.

    ffinities of the new Thai Cnemaspis remainunknown, for lack of a phylogenetic hypothe-ses for the genus. Several distinct and appar-ently unrelated species, once allocated to C.kandiana, are now known, the association withthis Sri Lankan endemic is for sharing spinoseflanks, comprising tuberculate scales, keeledgular scales, and the presence of preanal andfemoral scales.
