Dumnui's bent-toed gecko (Cyrtodactylus dumnuii) is a species of lizard in the family Gekkonidae. The species is endemic to Thailand.
The specific name, dumnuii, is in honor of Thai zoologist Sophon Dumnui. [3]
C. dumnuii is only known from its type locality, Phabartmaejon Cave in Mae Na, in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand [2] [4]
The preferred natural habitats of C. dumnuii are forest and dry caves. [1] The holotype and paratype specimens of C. dumnuii were collected inside the entrance and up to 30 m (98 ft) into a limestone cave. [2]
Adult males of C. dumnuii measure 81–84 mm (3.2–3.3 in) in snout-to-vent length (SVL), and adult females 76–84 mm (3.0–3.3 in) SVL. [2]
