“…Genetic data demonstrated that many wide‐ranging taxa comprised genetically distinct groups, with many species being referred to as cryptic (Agarwal & Karanth, 2015; Agarwal et al, 2018; Grismer et al, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018; Luu et al, 2016; Murdoch et al, 2019; Nazarov, Orlov, Sang, & Cuc, 2008, 2012; Nguyen et al, 2017; Oliver et al, 2012, 2018; Ziegler et al, 2010). These molecular‐based systematic studies have been instrumental in uncovering hidden diversity, but the Southeast Asian island of Borneo has only recently been investigated (Davis et al, 2019, 2020). Due to the prior lack of molecular genetic studies on Borneo, only 10 species of Cyrtodactylus are currently recognized, nine of which are endemic.…”
