The cloudy gecko (Mokopirirakau nebulosus) is a species of gecko that is endemic to New Zealand.[2] It is found on Stewart Island and outlying islands. It is an arboreal species which prefers a cold, wet climate.[3] Its appearance is very similar in pattern and colour to the forest gecko (M. granulatus); however, there is usually more green and brown rather than grey, and the pattern is less distinct.[4]
