Origin
Daytime sand grew hotter than the species' ancestors could bear, and its scales gradually became an efficient reflector of thermal radiation.

A white gecko with a huge round head and dark eyes, a sky-blue diamond on its forehead, four wide three-lobed feet and a short thick tail.

Evolution
Line E-20: Neon Gecko
Geckglint → Neongeck
Condition: a long life near glass, plastic and artificial light.
The reflective micro-scales shift from shielding against the sun’s heat to controllable color camouflage. The body shape stays almost the same, so the link between the forms is easy to see.
