Anole Annals dedicated all of last week to a detailed discussion of Nicholson et al.’s new monograph on anole classification, biogeography and ecomode evolution.  Because we had so many interesting posts, our discussion has spilled over into another week.  Some of the previously scheduled posts on biogeography and ecomode will be posted later today or tomorrow.  Check back later today for more discussion of Nicholson et al.’s hypothesized biogeographic scenario and stay tuned throughout the week as we wrap up our discussion of Nicholson et al.’s important monograph.  Remember also that Anole Annals welcomes posts and comments from anyone in the anole biology community about Nicholson et al.’s monograph, or any other topics to anole research.

Below the fold I provide an updated directory of the 18 previous Anole Annals posts pertaining to the Nicholson et al. monograph.
