TABLE 3. Comparisons of morphometric characters (in mm) and scale counts for nine Goniurosaurus species within the luii group. Character abbreviations are explained in material and methods (data for G. gezhi from Zhu et al. 2020; G. kadoorieorum and G. kwangsiensis from Yang & Chan 2015, G. araneus and G. luii from Grismer et al. 1999, G. liboensis from Wang et al. 2013, G huuliensis from Orlov et al. 2008; G. catbaensis from Orlov & Darevsky 1999). Subadults are not included. Data are lacking for some values as they were not reported in the original literature.
