Field Notes

Description:

A long, slender, brown lizard, males reach 20 cm (8 in) long, females are smaller. Males have yellowish spots on the back, a ridge down the center of its back, and an orange to pale-yellow, white-edged dewlap or throat flap.

Habitat:

I first saw this anole running across the ground along the edge of a garden, then it darted up a palm tree.
