Chuang (1973) wrote that “[o]f the house geckos previously recorded by Cantor from Singapore , Hemidactylus frenatus and H. garnoti are still the commonest”. However, we find no mention of H. garnotii from Singapore in any of Cantor’s publications. Furthermore, there are no subsequent records of H. garnotii from Singapore . Lim & Chou (1990) listed H. garnotii in their Singapore herpetofauna checklist based on Chuang (1973) , and Baker & Lim (2008) included it as indeterminate in their checklist in regards to Lim & Chou’s (1990) record. Photographs of the specimen UF-48956 that was collected at Havelock Road by Telford on 14 June 1976 was examined by one of us and is H. frenatus (A. Figueroa pers. obs.). LKCNHM & NHMUK Museum specimens. No specimens. Additional Singapore museum specimens. No specimens.
