Anolis centralis litoralis is raised to specific level, based on morphological characters, geographical distribution and behavior. A new species of the argillaceus group from Central-Eastern Cuba is described. It is similar to A. litoralis and A. centralis, but differing in having a shorter snout, a less developed dewlap, yellowish color, the tail of the males is thick in its base and has postcloacal enlarged scales and other features of the scaling.

The Anolis chrysolepis species group is distributed across the entire Amazon basin and currently consists of A. bombiceps and five subspecies of A. chrysolepis. These lizards are characterized by moderate size, relatively narrow digital pads, and a small dewlap that does not reach the axilla. We used the mitochondrial gene ND2 to estimate phylogenetic relationships among putative subspecies of A. chrysolepis and taxa previously hypothesized to be their close relatives. We also assessed the congruence between molecular and morphological datasets to evaluate the taxonomic status of group members. On the basis of the two datasets, we present a new taxonomy, elevating each putative subspecies of A. chrysolepis to species status. We provide new morphological diagnoses and new distributional data for each species.

Based on differences in hemipenial morphology we recognize two species of anoles related to Anolis polylepis: Anolis polylepis (Pacific versant of central and southern Costa Rica and western Panama, excluding the Osa Peninsula) and a species described herein which is restricted to the Osa Peninsula. The two species differ in hemipenial morphology (hemipenis bilobed in A. polylepis versus unilobed in the species from the Osa Peninsula) but show no discernable differences in external morphology (i.e., morphometrics, scalation, coloration, male dewlap). We therefore consider them to be cryptic species. At the neck of the Osa Peninsula where the ranges of the two species meet we detected a narrow (about 1 km wide) hybridization zone in which only individuals with an intermediate hemipenial morphology occur.

A partir del arreglo sistem\ático del complejo Anolis argillaceus, propuesto por Navarro et al. (2001), quedaron reconocidos en Cuba, seis taxones, incluyendo a A. litorales, considerado como especie, al ser separado de A. centralis, anteriormente conespecifico. Existen al menos, tres formas del complejo por describir; una, que aparentemente es la m\ás peque\ña de las especies cubanas que vive en el distrito de Yaguajay (Los Baflos y Mayajigua), de pliegue gular amarillo, otra de la Sierra de Cubitas y algunos de los cayos (Coco, Guillermo y Pared\ón Grande) m\ás orientales del archipi\élago de Sabana Camag\üey , con el pliegue gular rojizo, siendo en este car\ácter m\ás similar a la especie aqu\&$\#$39;{\i} descrita; y otra poblaci\ón que vive en la ladera Norte y Sur de la Sierra Maestra (Guisa, La Pimienta), de tama\ño similar, pero con el hocico m\ás corto y el pliegue gular melocot\ón. Como ocurre con otros grupos que contienen especies gemelas, este tax\ón nuevo comparte con otros, caracteres muy afines, y por lo tanto poseen pocos rasgos distintivos, lo que dificulta el reconocimiento de los taxones que lo integran, pues resultan de la combinaci\ón de caracteres (mosaico), donde var\&$\#$39;{\i}an fundamentalmente los valores promedios; la longitud hocico-cloaca; longitud del rostro; ancho de la cabeza; coloraci\ón y patrones del pliegue gular. Notamos que Anolis centralis se ha encontrado en la misma localidad. A continuaci\ón describimos una especie nueva de Anolis, perteneciente al complejo A. argillaceus.

Based on differences in coloration, morphometrics, and scalation, I recognize seven species of anoles related to Anolis pentaprion in Central America: Anolis beckeri (southeastern Mexico to northern Nicaragua), A. cristifer (Pacific lowlands of Chiapas to central Guatemala), A. fungosus (Caribbean premontane zone from central Costa Rica to western Panama), A. pentaprion (Caribbean lowlands of southern Nicaragua to northwestern Colombia, also on Pacific versant in central and eastern Panama), A. salvini (Pacific premontane and lower montane zones from central Costa Rica to western Panama), A. utilensis (restricted to Isla de Utila, Honduras), and a new species (from the Pacific lowlands of Costa Rica and western Panama) described herein. The new species differs from A. pentaprion by having a red male dewlap with few large, widely spaced gorgetal scales scattered across the dewlap (pink with purple pigment between rows of gorgetals, and with regular rows of numerous small, narrowly spaced gorgetal scales in A. pentaprion). Furthermore, I resurrect the name A. beckeri Boulenger for the pentaprion-like populations of anoles distributed from southeastern Mexico to northern Nicaragua. Anolis beckeri differs from A. pentaprion most obviously in the dorsal tail scalation (a serrated caudal crest present in A. pentaprion versus no such crest in A. beckeri) and dewlap scalation (gorgetal rows with 17\–25 narrowly spaced scales in A. pentaprion versus gorgetal rows with 4\–10 widely spaced scales in A. beckeri). Finally, SMF 83608 is proposed as the neotype for Anolis pentaprion. I provide standardized descriptions of A. beckeri, A. pentaprion, and the new species described herein.
