For a pair of cork barks your looking at around $300-$400 and sometimes more. They can be kept basically the same as sikorae.

The Cork Bark or Spiny Uroplatus was described last month. They are called U. Pietschmanni. In europe, the price is from 240 euro to 375 euro per animal.

The authors are german. Andreas Böehle and Patrick Schönecker. Here is the journal:
Böhle, A. & P. Schönecker. 2003. Eine neue Art der Gattung Uroplatus Duméril, 1805 aus Ost-Madagaskar (Reptilia: Squamata: Gekkonidae). Salamandra, 39(3/4): 129-138

They are working on an article on caring etc.

Thanks Kristapo!

The Univeristy I attend does not subscribe to that journal, however, I can try and obtain it through interlibrary loan... I would really love to get my hands on it... As well as any sister papers they may publish in the future...
