Generally, henkeli have a very prominent frill along the edges of the underside of their bodies. This helps aid in breaking up their outline and camoflauging them. In the photos the frill on your gecko seems to very small, far less than that of my henkeli; which leads me to believe you have sikorae. Again, I'm not definite but if I had to choose I would say sikorae.
