摘要对苏门答腊岛及其西缘岛屿（尼亚斯、西比路、帕盖和恩加诺）的小型昼行壁虎（体长< 40 mm）进行了调查。该组合包括基于形态学证据的几个物种，其中五个我们描述为新物种。这些新物种出现在苏门答腊省的亚齐省、北苏门答腊省和西苏门答腊省。最后，我们提供了一个新的关键和重新描述的三个以前公认的物种：Cnemaspis martwaani，Cnemaspis modiglianii，和Cnemaspis whittenorum，根据最近收集的材料，并澄清矛盾的信息，他们的原始描述和他们的关键下每个物种的帐户。
Abstract We investigated diminutive day geckos (SVL < 40 mm) of the genus Cnemaspis (Cnemaspis kandiana Group) from mainland Sumatra and islands along its western margin (Nias, Siberut, Pagai, and Enggano). The assemblage includes several species based on morphological evidence, five of which we describe as new. The new species occur in the Sumatran provinces of Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra. Finally, we provide a new key and redescriptions for three previously recognized species: Cnemaspis dezwaani, Cnemaspis modiglianii, and Cnemaspis whittenorum, based on recently collected material, and clarify contradictory information concerning their original descriptions and their key under each species account.
