We describe a new species of the genus    Cyrtodactylus    based on five adult specimens from Bac Ha District, Lao Cai Province, northern Vietnam.    Cyrtodactylus   luci    sp. nov.  is distinguished from the remaining Indochinese bent-toed geckos by a combination of the following morphological characteristics: medium size ( SVL  up to 89.5 mm); dorsal tubercles in 17–19 irregular transverse rows; ventral scales in 32–34 longitudinal rows at midbody; precloacal pores present in both sexes, 9 or 10 in males, 8 or 9 in females; 12–15 enlarged femoral scales on each thigh; femoral pores 9–12 in males, 5–10 in females; postcloacal tubercles 2–4; lamellae under toe IV 21–23; dorsal pattern consisting of 5 or 6 irregular dark bands, a thin neckband without V-shape or triangle shape in the middle, top of head with dark brown blotches; subcaudal scales transversely enlarged. Molecular phylogenetic analyses recovered the new species as the sister taxon to    C.   gulinqingensis    from Yunnan Province, China, with strong support from all analyses and the two taxa are separated by approximately 8.87–9.22% genetic divergence based on a fragment of the mitochondrial  ND2  gene. This is the first representative of    Cyrtodactylus    known from Lao Cai Province.
