We call these the Indo Pacific Gecko and they are parthenogenic. They're all females and lay a pair of fertile eggs with no male intervention. You can hatch the eggs and keep them in a glass box and they will grow into females that lay fertile eggs, again and again.

I've never known that! And they are very common creatures in the Philippines. When I was a little kid, I used to play with their detached tails as they ran into cover. After it stopped wriggling, we'd throw the tail near the chickens and they fight over them.
Could they be hermaphroditic? We commonly see couples in coital position. Or is that just "palling" around?
Thanks again.
