The Gulbaru leaf-tailed gecko has the ability to regenerate its tail.

Of 12 individuals, six male, five female, and one juvenile, encountered over two nights by a surveying team in 2003, 75% had regenerated tails. This is a similar proportion to that seen in the Mount Elliot leaf-tailed gecko (Phyllurus amnicola).
