Pins are Wikidata “endemic to” fields. Orange dots, when present, are GBIF occurrence tiles — survey bias included.

Habits

It is one of two semi-aquatic anoles from the Caribbean, the other being A. Vermiculatus of Cuba, and there are a few additional semi-aquatic anoles in Central and South America. The semi-aquatic anoles are morphologically diverse and do not form a monophyletic group, but there is convergence in certain microstructures of their skin, making it highly hydrophobic.
