R. chahoua is currently being evaluated by CITES as a possible candidate for protective status. R. chahoua was first described by Bavay in 1869. R. chahoua gets its common name from the moss or lichen like pattern it displays. Colors range from rusty red and brown to green or gray. There has been some notation that color could possibly be a geographic indicator in this species as the geckos from the outer islands most often display the lighter gray patterns. It commonly reaches a snout to vent length SVL of 5.5 inches. R. chahoua , like all of the Rhacodactylus geckos are omnivore s. Their diet in the wild consists of various insect s and fruits. They may also consume small lizard s as part of their diet nutrition diet . R. chahoua lays two well calcified eggs that become adhered to one another shortly after laying. This is known as egg gluing . R. chahoua is the only Rhacodactylus gecko that lays adhering eggs. The eggs are generally laid on top of the substrate generally behind loose tree bark and are guarded by the female. The eggs hatch 60 90 days after laying. This gecko is seen in the herpetology trade but rarely. A male female pair may be kept in a terrarium with a minimum size of 24x18x18, but as with all arboreal geckos, the taller the better.
