The northern Sri Lanka gecko (Cyrtodactylus yakhuna) is a ground-dwelling lizard species endemic to Sri Lanka. They inhabit deciduous and scrub forests across the northeastern, north-central, and northwestern provinces. This species is crepuscular, hiding during the day and emerging at night to forage for small arthropods such as termites.

The northern Sri Lanka gecko has a stout, cylindrical body with a heavy, tapering tail. It can be distinguished by the lateral dark markings that adorn its dorsum. During the breeding season in January, four eggs are laid simultaneously, which incubate for up to 95 days.
