i've never heard of the species uroplatus sirawai, but i did a quick image search on yahoo and the only results linked me to images of what looked to me like uroplatus pietschmanni, or the spiny leaf tail gecko. also, one of the images said spiny leaf tail gecko, so im guessing there may be some controversy building up as to who described this species first? jurgen pietschmann is who they're named after, a german breeder. i've got a trio of these. is this what you saw?

a japanese name for the gecko named Uroplatus Pietschmanni, which is earlier called "Spiny".
