Here you'll find fabulous pictures of Anguilla Lizards

These lizards are known to show tremendous genetic diversity throughout the Caribbean and in many ways each island claims unique features such as size, body characteristics and  color.

This feature highlights aggressive behavior between two lizards typical of those found in trees and gardens in Anguilla. It shows an array of lizard behaviors including: Dewlap Extensions (skin under the throats used for communication), dorsal-ventral enlargement of body profiles, protrusions of discernable crests along the neck and back and  interlocking of jaws. 

This feature shows some of the other tree lizards found in Anguilla. Particularly interesting are the examples of camouflage, a spectacular example of a dewlap extension and a photo of lizards mating which fast became one of the most extensively linked external photographs when it was first posted on this site.

This feature highlights the Anguilla ground lizard. Until recently it was the lizard of this size on the island, however during June of 2005 an intensely green lizard of a similar size, did dart pass my car in East End.

The feature allows for a clear comparison  of the male and female in terms of their size body structure and color. In addition, the photographs illustrate how cunningly the lizards use their environment to camouflage their presence.

The Anguilla House Gecko is featured in this section.  Here we show what we believe are three different types of this lizard that may be found in some homes on the island. It tends to feed on insects and lives in the corners of closets or behind hanging picture frames.   

This listing of lizards in Anguilla is developing and new photos will be added in the coming months and years as new lizards are seen and photographed.
