The ability for geckos to climb vertical surfaces is made possible by the hundreds of microscopic, hair-like fibers present on their toes, which are so fine and densely concentrated as to trap air between the gecko’s toes and the surface they are adhering to. Effectively, the geckos do not “stick” or “adhere” to a surface, rather, they are able to utilize compressed air to grip. With the help of this ability they have on their feet, they are able to grip on to surfaces, making it easier for them to travel from one place to another.

and evidence that
Eastern Gondwanan lineages of Diplodactylidae, Pygopodidae and Carphodactylidae appear older than lineages in the Gekkonidae. These findings have been upheld and clarified in subsequent dating analyses. Most molecular divergence studies agree that diplodactylids were likely present prior to the final breakup of Australia and Antarctica with diversification of crown diplodactyloids occurring between the late Cretaceous or the earliest Paleogene periods. A recent phylogenomic analysis suggests independent colonization events to New Zealand and New Caledonia after the

As Kluge believed pupil shape alone to be too variable a diagnostic character, his classification was based on 18 morphological characters, as well as geologic and geographical origins. This necessitated the reallocation of several Diplodactylinae genera (e.g., those from South Africa, those with “non-parchment-like” shelled eggs) to the Gekkoninae.

Caledonian diplodactylids in spite of a growing number of studies investigating them. New Zealand genera have proved somewhat easier to analyze. The group has correspondingly gone through several taxonomic revisions to reach the current order of genera proposed by Nielson et al. in 2011. Yet, a high amount of cryptic diversity remains unresolved, especially within
1620:. In 2020 four new species were reported in New Caledonia. Just within the past decade, diversity records within Diplodactylidae have increased substantially, from 54 species to almost 140 species. This is due in large part to improvement in taxon sampling and molecular analyses, as well as the growing recognition of the cryptic diversity that still exists within the family.
234:, Diplodactylidae often live in warm areas that are around the temperature of 24–29 °C (75–85 °F). They mostly live in rain forests, up in the trees for protection. However, they are also found in cooler climates such as those found in southern New Zealand, where they have been found to be active in temperatures ranging from 1.4 to 31.9C.

Caledonian diplodactylids show evidence of their more recent and rapid radiation in short branch lengths. Because the quick succession of genera can complicate phylogenetic reconstruction, it may remain difficult to produce well-supported intergeneric relationships

In subsequent years, Kluge's classifications of genera, which built off
Underwood's original groupings, were generally accepted. However, Kluge's subfamilial allocations—including his subdivision of Diplodactylinae—and his apparent assumptions around their respective monophyly proved problematic for

Underwood's classification, instead recognizing a single family, Gekkonidae (later equivalent to Gekkota) with four subfamilies that included the Eublepharinae, Sphaerodactylinae, Gekkoninae and Diplodactylinae. He subdivided Diplodactylinae into two tribes,
