Abstract
Gray (1845) occupied the nomen Lyperosaurus(p. 145, and later, on p. 283, in the index) and subsequently Luperosaurus (p. 163) for a genus of Southeast Asian gekkonid lizards. The root ‘Lyper,’ Greek for ‘difficult’ or ‘vexing,’ is presumably for sharing characters of Amydosaurus Gray, 1845 (synonymous with Lepidodactylus Fitzinger, 1843 and Ptychozoon Kuhl and van Hasselt, 1822). The type species of the genus is Luperosaurus cumingii Gray, 1845, by monotypy.
