Holotype and type locality: Adult male (LSUHC 10074) from “Bukit Panchor State Park, Penang, West Malaysia 05°09.465' N, 100°32.885' E at an elevation of 47 m a.s.l. ”
Distribution: Cyrtodactylus payacola is known from the Bukit Panchor State Park, Penang; the Sungai Chikus Forest Reserve, Perak; and Shah Alam, Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia and most likely ranges throughout all lowland coastal areas west of the Banjaran Bintang and Titiwangsa to as far south perhaps as Melaka. To the north, it may not range beyond the Thai–Malaysian border owing to the potential dispersal barrier of the Banjaran Nakawan.
