The East Arnhem Land gehyra (Gehyra arnhemica) is a species of gecko. It is endemic to the Northern Territory of Australia.[1][2] It was first described in 2020. The same paper which described Gehyra arnhemica also described five other species of Gehyra.[3]
The epithet arnhemica refers to the Arnhem Land region of the Northern Territory, to which the species is endemic.[1]
