Diversity and development of the hemibacula of croaking geckos (Sphaerodactylidae: Aristelliger)
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Geckos in the genus Aristelliger exhibit enigmatic mineralized elements in their hemipenes, called hemibacula. We examined hemibacula of every species of Aristelliger using μCT, clearing and staining, and histology. We found hemibacula exhibit lineage‐specific morphology, isometric growth after sexual maturity, and are composed of mineralized ...
