Hey guys. Chun it looks like a great match to me. I've updated.
Hi Dan and Bayucca, this is more closer to a C. pubisulcus. C. quadrivirgatus is only found in Northwest Borneo. C. pubisulcus is larger and found in Sarawak. I cannot confirm that this is a C. pubisulcus but this is the best ID match I could get from "Lizards Of Borneo" guide book by Indraneil Das.
Thanks bayucca. I think it looks exactly like your suggestion.
My closest guess would be Cyrtodactylus sp. and a little bit closer, why not Cyrtodactylus quadrivirgatus?? Please, check yourself! http://orionmystery.blogspot.ch/2013/09/eyes-eyes-baby-d.html http://www.unco.edu/biology/faculty_staff/mackessy/Photo%20Gallery/lizards/Cyrtodactylus%20quadrivirgatus.jpg http://www.ecologyasia.com/verts/lizards/marbled-bent-toed-gecko.htm https://www.flickr.com/photos/orionmystery/10115685534/ http://s1303.photobucket.com/user/RupertsReptiles/media/b4198c2e-8825-4f50-a13e-98dbf9459244_zps1fdcbbab.jpg.html Note the blue part above the eyes, the tiny black spot/pin on the head between the eyes, the banded tail. The darker markings on the body may vary as usual ;-)...
