First two are H. mabouia, last is H. garnotii.
Edit: stupid iPhone, thought it was certainly garnotii at first glance. Hard to tell after zooming, but still leaning garnotii.

I felt certain the last is garnotii. Was leaning towards mabouia on the first two, as umop stated, but I only feel sure about the last one.

3rd the motion.First two are H. mabouia, last is H. garnotii.
Last one seems to have the lights spots you see on H. garnottii often.
Just as a reminder, this was a nice post of our Jake Scott in 2012.

Re: Florida Keys Hemidactylus ID
What the others have said. I'm 100% confident on the mabouia, and I trust the judgement of the others on the garnotti.
