Stenodactylus doriae, the Middle Eastern short-fingered gecko or Doria's comb-fingered gecko, is a species of gecko. It occurs in Saudia Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Jordan, and Kuwait.[1]
The gecko reaches about 8.3 centimeters in snout-to-vent length.[1] Its eyes are bordered by large scales to protect them from the sand during burrowing.[2]
