  Phelsuma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The one exception is Phelsuma andamanense, which is endemic to the Andaman islands in the Bay of Bengal.
The genus Phelsuma was first described by the British zoologist John Edward Gray in 1825 and named after the Dutch physician Murk van Phelsum.
Two Phelsuma species (Phelsuma gigas and Phelsuma edwardnewtoni) are now considered to be extinct, probably because of destruction of their environment by human settlers and their domestic animals.

Phelsumas are small lizards which are also known as day geckos.

 Another Color: Phelsuma
Phelsuma fascinated me because these lizards that the late Sean McKeown dubbed "the living jewels of the islands of the Indian Ocean" were active and some even seemed curious of activity outside their enclosures.
With their breakaway tails (they will grow back, but never as nice as the original) and their fragile skin, they are display animals not animals to be held and displayed from your hands.
Also similar to chameleons, Phelsuma must be allowed to thermoregulate themselves by moving to areas of the tank with different temperatures.

Phelsuma ornata, one of the smalles reptiles in the world, ranges in length from 1.5 to 2.5 cm.
Like many of the species of Phelsuma inhabiting the islands around and on Madagascar, Phelsuma ornata is omnivorous, spending its days leaping around in search of insects, lapping up nectar, saps, and juices, and consuming pollen and overripe fruits (Bartlett and Bartlett 1997).
