I saw a bunch of these little guys while on vacation in the Dominican Republic...anybody have any idea what species they are? I'm thinking some kind of anole maybe...
It is. Probably a female Anolis cristatellus or Anolis cybotes.CIRE said:I'm thinking some kind of anole maybe...
I stayed in Punta Cana...not much as far as herping is concerned...it was a resort, so I think they try to kill any animal that enters the "grounds"...they also sprayed a bunch of pesticides which totally pissed me off...I would have rather had bugs running all around me while I slept instead of breathing in that stuff!!!Lasiodora said:CIRE,
Where did you stay on the island? There are American crocs and two species of Cyclura (iguanas) at Lago Enriquillo. The lake is also the most saline lake in the carribean. There are also a couple of species of boas, a lot of colubrids, scorps, centipedes, milipedes, plenty of interesting arachnids (like the ogre faced spider) and the list goes on. I am hoping to head out there again for herping only next time I go (hopefully I can limit the family visits).

I think its Anolis segrei, the brown anole.CIRE said:I saw a bunch of these little guys while on vacation in the Dominican Republic...anybody have any idea what species they are? I'm thinking some kind of anole maybe...
This species does not occur in The Dominican Republic. The only documented non-native anole in DR is Anolis cristatellus (Puerto Rican crested anole).Kid Dragon said:
