Can anyone help with an ID of these anoles from the Dominican Republic?
Spoiler warning: May be A. cybotes, but maybe not…
Thanks!

It seems to be typical cybotes, but with a little too colorful dewlap. We have seen that here in DR lowlands, where was the animal? Nice photos. Enjoy the DR!

Thanks Miguel,
The photos were taken at Mount Isabel de Torres (by Michel Pilon, as indicated).

I second the ID. The light green flank stripe bordered by copper flecks is definitely cybotes to me.

Here is another one from Mount Isabel del Torres, near Puerto Plata, N Dominican Republic. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Definitely Anolis distichus.

Thank you Robert for identifying it. Perhaps that as he was not on a trunk, I didn’t recognize it 😉
And thanks to Peter for having submitted my picture and the question. It is really appreciated 🙂
Cheers,
