Lots of anole action at the herp meetings starting on Wednesday in Minneapolis. Listed below are the talks and posters found by searching for “anol” in the online program abstract. If you know of others, please let us know. And…if you’re going to attend the meetings, how about posting on the talks and posters, so those of us not in the northlands can stay up to speed? Abstracts can be found by going here (I just read through them–some great stuff!).

Second day of the meeting and still no anole talks or posters! I’ve just learned, however, that Gunderson’s talk on thermal ecology has been shifted to today (Friday) at 2:30 in Conrad B & C.
