@Justin Stapleton. No, anoles are not venomous. There are only two species of venomous lizard in the North America region. One is the "gila monster" and the other is its relative, the " beaded lizard". They occur in the southwestern US, Mexico and/or Guatemala.

The scientific name of the brown anole is Anolis sagrei. Please insert this into the space reserved for scientific name (while in edit mode) so that your spotting is marked as identified in the Project Noah spotting database. Thank you.
