 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 due to the destruction of their environment by human settlers and their domestic animals.

 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.

 PhelsumaWeb.com - The Captive Care and Breeding of Phelsuma standingi
Phelsuma standingi are one of the largest species of gecko from Madagascar.
Unlike other Phelsuma's, Standing's come from a drier region in Madagascar and humidity levels that are too high can actually be harmful to them.
Though I have found that fluorescent lighting seems to be preferred by all Phelsuma's and they display brighter colors and are happier when fluorescent lighting is used.

Phelsuma standingi (Standings Day Gecko) are from a dryer area of Madagascar, and can tolerate 55-65% humidity.
Phelsuma Standingi (Standing’s Day Gecko) will appreciate a slightly hotter basking area, 90-92 degrees F. Geckos, like other reptiles, will want to thermoregulate themselves, so provide a temperature gradient in the cage.
A lateral (horizontal) basking area is absolutely essential for Phelsuma standingi (Standing’s Day Gecko) to prevent a condition known as flap-tail.

 GGA Phelsuma standingi
Captive care for this gecko is somewhat different from that of the more commonly available species of Phelsuma and breeding is unlikely if the proper environmental and temperature requirements are not met.
An adult pair can be housed in screen or glass vivaria with dimensions of at least 60 cm (2 ft) high by 40 cm (16 in) by 40 cm.
These animals are more amicable towards each other than many related species (both male and female Phelsuma can be quite aggressive), although they do not tolerate animals outside of their immediate family group.
