But it has the sticky feet and no eyelids, and kindof a bumpy texture on it's back, not so smooth like the banded. it's tail is also a little slimmer. but it has the same pinkish skin, and markings, and is about 4 inches or so long, including the tail. Does anyone have any idea what it is? It was found just outside of phoenix, in the outlying area. I would appreciate any speculations and help, thanks.

Sounds like a Mediterranean gecko, Hemidactylus turcicus.
