Özet

The locality records of the Turkish gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus) whose inhabited locations from Black Sea coast of Turkey was not clearly specified in the literature were provided in the present study. The lizards were caught from three provinces (Zonguldak, Sinop, and Trabzon). The pholidolial and morphometric characters and color-pattern features of the specimens were found similar to the specimens of H. turcicus reported in the literature.
