Cyrtodactylus miriensis is a species of gecko that is endemic to Sarawak in Malaysian Borneo.[2] The specific name refers to the Miri District in Sarawak. It probably is present also in Brunei, but this remains unconfirmed.[1] Recent observations recorded on iNaturalist have shown the species to be present in Brunei.

Cyrtodactylus miriensis can reach at least 71 mm (2.8 in) in snout–vent length.[1]
