Adult male, CNHM 100067 , collected by Edward H. Taylor and Hobart M. Smith near Tierra Colorada Guerrero , June 30, 1932 . Diagnosis. A large gecko according to Dixon (1964) attaining a snout-vent length of 78 mm . This observation agrees with ours, as the largest species in the P. lanei complex are P. lanei , P. benedettii and P. lupitae . Has more than 30 tubercles from head to tail (33.2), similar to P. isabelae (32.2) and P. muralis (33.6). The other species of the P. lanei complex have fewer than 30, P. lupitae (28.8), P. rupinus (28), P. benedettii (27.4), P. kropotkini (28.4). Other species of geckos with more tubercles are P. t. magnus (37) and P. tuberculosus (36.4). Phyllodactylus lanei presents 30 scales across the venter similar to P. kropotkini (30.6) and P. tuberculosus (30.2), but differing from P. isabelae (27.8), P. lupitae (24.6), P. rupinus (26.5), P. benedettii (29.1) and P. t. magnus (27.3). Distribution. This species is restricted to the localities of Tierra Colorada and Chilpancingo, Guerrero and adjacent locations of medium-low altitude localities.
