Cyrtodactylus kazirangaensis is a species of gecko. It is endemic to Assam, Northeast India,[1][3] where it is only known from its type locality at the northern edge of the Mikir Hills. Its true range could extend into the Kaziranga National Park,[1] to which its specific name refers to.[3]

This species grows to at least 80 mm (3.1 in) in snout–vent length.[3]
