-The Gehyra punctata species complex in the Pilbara and surrounding regions of Western Australia has long been known for its confused taxonomy. Recent collections in the region have enabled a reassessment of specimens currently referable to G. punctata. We assessed populations genetically using newly generated mitochondrial DNA data in conjunction with recently published phylogenomic data and an unpublished allozyme analysis. In addition, we carried out a detailed morphological examination involving hundreds of specimens across this taxon's range. Many possible candidate species were recovered from these analyses, and the re-examination of morphology indicated two major clades: one small-bodied and one large-bodied, each comprising multiple divergent lineages within them. A syntype of Peropus variegatus punctatus Fry, 1914, believed to have been lost at the time of Mitchell's revision in 1965, was recently found in the Western Australian Museum collections, and is here designated as the lectotype of G. punctata sensu stricto.
