Ptychozoon

Ptychozoon is a genus of arboreal geckos, endemic to Southeast Asia, known as flying geckos or parachute geckos.〔Malkmus R, Manthey U. 2002. ''Amphibians & Reptiles of Mount Kinabalu (North Borneo).'' Germany: A.R.G. 424 pp. ISBN 978-3904144834. (''Ptychozoon'', pp. 32, 267-268).〕 They are characterized by cryptic coloration and elaborate webs surrounding the neck, limbs, trunk, and tail.〔 These membranes help to conceal the gecko against trees. When the gecko leaps into the air, the flaps are used to generate lift and allow the gecko to control its fall. It can fly up to 200 feet (60 meters). Also it does a swoop at the end of its flight to land softly. A similar adaptation is found in geckos of the genus ''Cosymbotus''. There are eight described species in the genus ''Ptychozoon''. They are often kept as pets.
