“…Anolisdracula is nested within the Dactyloa clade of Anolis , which is in turn well supported by morphological and molecular data (Castañeda and de Queiroz 2013; Prates et al 2015; Poe et al 2017). Castañeda and de Queiroz (2013) proposed five species series within the Dactyloa clade: A.aequatorialis series, A.latifrons series, A.punctatus series, A.heterodermus series, and A.roquet series.…”

A new species of Anolis lizard from the Andean slopes of southwestern Colombia and northwestern Ecuador, from between 1187 and 2353 m in elevation, is described. The new species can be distinguished from other Anolis in squamation, cranial osteology, hemipenial morphology, and nuclear and mitochondrial DNA. The new species is sister to Anolisaequatorialis, and it is suggested that previous records of A.aequatorialis in Colombia correspond to the new species described herein.

“…Bird predation on West Indian reptiles has been reviewed by Powell and Henderson (2008) (Williams 1972, Rivero 1998, Ojeda-Kessler 2010, Castañeda and de Queiroz 2013. Our literature review revealed that two specimens of A. occultus were collected by Williams and Rivero (1965) while Thomas (1965) reported capturing 34 specimens in the original description.…”

“…The species shows no sexual size dimorphism (based on 18 females and seven males, Butler et al 2000). Molecular and morphological data of A. occultus exist for examining phylogenetic relationships among anoles (e.g., Brandley and de Queiroz 2004, Nicholson et al 2005, Losos 2009, Kolbe et al 2011, Nicholson et al 2012, Castañeda and de Queiroz 2013. Webster (1969) recorded the first observation of a specimen of Anolis occultus lapping liquid for a short time, when a specimen became active approximately at 0700h.…”

Abstract:We document the first record of nectarivory and bird predation in the Puerto Rican Dwarf Anole, Anolis occultus, which expands our knowledge on the natural history in the most diverse genus of Neotropical lizards. In addition, we conducted a literature review on all recorded information about this species, which revealed that little is known about the natural history and the ecology of A. occultus since its description in 1965. A discrepancy exists between the International Union for the Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) and the Puerto Rico's Department of Natural and Environmental Resources' (DNER) listings of A. occultus: 'Least Concern' in the former, 'Data Deficient' in the latter. This discrepancy in international and state listing categories, along with the lack of ecological and historical information on the species, warrants a change of the species' status to 'Data Deficient' by the IUCN, and we recommend areas of ecological research with conservation implications for the species.

“…Recently, Nicholson et al (2012) proposed a new classification for the anoles. Despite published criticism (Castañeda & de Queiroz 2013;Poe 2013), rebutted by Nicholson et al (2014), we follow the Nicholson et al (2012) arrangement herein, and thus recognize Norops for the beta anoles occurring in Central America. Abbreviations for museum collections follow Sabaj Pérez (2014) except ECOCHH (Museo de Zoología-Ecosur, Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico), MZ-UNICACH (Museo Zoológico de la Universidad de Ciencias y Artes del Estado de Chiapas, Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, Mexico), and IHNHERP (Colección Herpetológica del Instituto de Historia Natural, Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, Mexico).…”

We describe the new species Norops triumphalis sp. nov. from Darién, Panama. Norops triumphalis differs from all congeners by having a combination of (1) smooth, bulging, subimbricate ventral scales; (2) a short tail, ratio tail length/SVL 1.54; (3) short hind legs, longest toe of adpressed hind leg reaching to ear opening, ratio shank length/SVL 0.24; (4) a lichenous body pattern; and (5) a very large yellowish orange dewlap in males. In external morphology, N. triumphalis is most similar to the species of the N. pentaprion group. Norops triumphalis differs from the other species in the N. pentaprion group, except N. sulcifrons, by having a very large orange male dewlap (vs. a large red or pink dewlap) and an unpigmented throat lining. Norops triumphalis differs from N. sulcifrons by having the supracaudal scales not forming a serrated crest (vs. a distinct serrated caudal crest present in N. sulcifrons), 4 supracaudal scales per segment (vs. 3 supracaudal scales per segment in N. sulcifrons), greatly enlarged outer postmental scales, about four times the size of adjacent medial scales (vs. moderately enlarged outer postmental scales, about twice the size of adjacent medial scales, in N. sulcifrons), and no enlarged postcloacal scales in males (vs. a pair of moderately enlarged postcloacal scales present in male N. sulcifrons). We further provide a standardized description and illustrations of the holotype of N. sulcifrons.
