Green Anole

[RoachGirlRen]

cody, Cuban brown anoles (Anolis sagrei) and Green anoles (Anolis carolinensis) look significantly different even when the green anole has turned brown. The body shape, head shape, markings, etc. are all rather different.

The brown anole really doesn't look like a green anole, They are larger, heavier and with an interesting pattern. I spotted mine in a petshop in a tank of green anoles and he was a standout.

Nice pictures. Did you take them? I love that beaded texture to their skin.

well i was just asking...and thanks for he clarification! i didnt know that. but i ask because i stopped by the lps the otherday and they were selling what to me looked like a sickly green anole as a "brown anole" so basically its there way of pawning off the sick ones to an unsuspecting customer
