Photos of anole fights from previous posts by Martha Munoz and Jonathan Losos.
We’ve had a number of posts on anole combat at Anole Annals, many of which have featured fantastic photos (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) or videos (1, 2, 3). I’m sure there are lots more cool anole fight photos out there, so this seems like an ideal theme for a new Anole Annals photo contest! Use the comments to submit photos of anole combat. The winner will get a featured post and the admiration of Anole Annals readers. Previously posted images are eligible. The deadline for submissions will be next Friday (June 1st) and I’ll post at least one reminder between now and then.

This is a picture I took on Crooked Island in May 2012, showing two male Anolis brunneus in the heat of battle.

The pictures aren’t showing up. Let me know if this seems to be a problem with the blog.

Sorry about this! I really did “attach” them to my comments, and they seemed to work from my end. I just emailed them to Jonathan, who’s offered to post them for me. Not sure what happened here, but the photos are worth the wait!

Here’s a picture of the same fight as above, taken by my student Andrew Battles.
