- ... that off-roading at Muriwai Beach in New Zealand may be damaging the habitat of the newly described korowai gecko? Source: https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/checkpoint/audio/2018924043/new-species-of-gecko-on-auckland-s-west-coast-named

- Comment: The iNaturalist image is technically not research-grade, but is definitely correct, as the photo was taken by the herpetologist who described the species (i.e. iNaturalist hasn't put the species in their database yet).
