Species
There are four species:[1]
- Homopholis arnoldi Loveridge, 1944Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
- Homopholis fasciata (Boulenger, 1890)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". — banded velvet gecko, striped velvet gecko
- Homopholis mulleri Visser, 1987Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". — Muller's velvet gecko
- Homopholis wahlbergii (A. Smith, 1849)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". — Wahlberg's velvet gecko
Nota bene: A binomial authority in parentheses indicates that the species was originally described in a genus other than Homopholis.
Nomenclatural note: The spelling walbergii was corrected to wahlbergii by Smith (1849) in an errata within an addenda slip (unpaginated).
