Gekkonid geckos occur globally and are particularly species-rich in tropical areas.Hemidactylus geckos are one of the most species-rich and widely distributed of all reptile genera. [7]Fossils[edit]The earliest known gekkonidae fossil record Yantarogekko was found in Eocene-Aged Baltic amber.[8]Distribution[edit]Species within the Gekkonidae family can be located in every warm land area, furthermore, many genera are capable of widespread geographical habitation. Genus Hemidactylus alone supports this claim as it can be identified in all sub-tropical areas of the world.[7][9] However, many other genera exist that are endemic, for example, genera afroedura, and afrogecko, are distributed in the continent of Africa.[10][11] The range of genus Lepidodactylus stretches from South Asia to Oceania; this genus also accounts for several island species.[12] The genera listed here do not account for all Gekkonidae subspecies and are used only as examples of distribution, for a full list see section ‘Genera’.[13][14][15]Gekkonidae contains the following genera:Possibly belonging to the family:\u2020Yantarogekko (fossil)Phylogeny[edit]Pyron, et al.
