Anybody any good at identifying crested gecko morphs?

I'm pretty sure it is some form of Harlequin,(But not certain) But if it is, is it a specific type of harllie? I don't really care, not planning on breeding them or selling it. I'm just curious about what it might be. For all I know it is just "A plain old crested gecko."

I have one I bought labelled harlequin, and it looks a lot like that. Having said that, I know basically nothing about crestie morphs.

Well, as I said, I'm pretty confident that it is a Harlequin based on the comparisons of photos I've looked at of various Harlequins.

But the sub-types are bewildering! It's like they take a chain of words and string them together to come up with a name to make them more expensive.

I almost bought one. Fairly sure it’s a Harley from my talks of specimens with breeders.

I was always dalmation fan.
