Could be, indeed, thanks! It was maybe 20-30 cm long counting until the end of its tail (just an estimate for what I remember).

How big was this one? I think it might be the "giant" ameiva (Ameiva ameiva ). Take a look at this specific photo here: http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/resources/james_harding/Ameiva.am.FL.jpg/view.html and here's some more general info: http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/information/Ameiva_ameiva.html
