'''''Gekko''''' is a [[genus]] of [[Southeast Asia]]n [[gecko]]s, [[Common name|commonly]] known as '''true geckos''' or '''calling geckos''', in the [[Family (biology)|family]] [[Gekkonidae]]. Although [[species]] such as ''[[Gekko gecko]]'' (tokay gecko) are very widespread and common, some species in the same genus have a very small range and are considered rare or endangered. Fossils, including ''[[Yantarogekko]]'', date back to the [[Eocene]].<ref>{{cite web |title=†Yantarogekko Bauer et al. 2005 (gecko) |publisher=Fossil works |url=http://www.fossilworks.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=90339}}</ref>
