Bouldering in south-central Madagascar: A new 'rock-climbing' gecko species of the genus Paroedura

Named after its habitat preference, Paroedura manongavato, from the Malagasy words "manonga" (to climb) and "vato" (rock), is a bouldering expert. Part of its "home range" is also very well-known to rock climbers for its massive granitic domes.
