The subspecies is endemic to eastern Madagascar and typically inhabits different trees. This day gecko feeds on insects and nectar. EtymologyThe subspecific name, hallmanni, is in honor of German herpetologist Gerhard Hallmann.[1] DescriptionPh. p. hallmanni belongs to the smallest day geckos. It can reach a total length (including tail) of about {{convert|9|cm|in|abbr=on}}. The body colour is dark green. On the back there are red dots present. On the snout, a blue triangle is present, which is bordered from behind by a red bar. On the neck and back of the head bluish speckles are present. The tail is turquoise. The flanks are brown or black. The ventral side is white. Geographic rangeThe subspecies Ph. p. hallmanni inhabits the east coast of Madagascar. It is only known from the region around Andasibe. HabitatPh. p. hallmanni lives in a moist and warm climate. It inhabits different trees and can often be found on trees on the edge of forest along the road. DietPh. p. hallmanni feeds on various insects and other invertebrates. It also likes to lick soft, sweet fruit, pollen and nectar. BehaviourPh. p. hallmanni is quite quarrelsome and does not accept other males. In captivity, where the female cannot escape, the male can also sometimes seriously wound a female. In this case the male and female must be separated. ReproductionThe pairing season of Ph. p. hallmanni is between October and the first weeks of May. Care and maintenance in captivityPh. p. hallmanni should be housed in pairs and needs a well planted terrarium. The temperature should be about 28 °C (82 °F), locally around 30 °C (86 °F), during the day, and drop to around 20 °C (68 °F) at night. The humidity should be maintained between 75 and 80% during the day. It is also important to include two colder months with a daytime temperature of 24 °C (75 °F) and 16 °C (61 °F) at night. In captivity, it can be fed crickets, wax moth larvae, fruit flies, mealworms and houseflies. References1. ^Beolens, Bo; Watkins, Michael; Grayson, Michael (2011). The Eponym Dictionary of Reptiles.
