A new species of the argillaceus group from Central-Eastern Cuba is described.

A new species of Anolis with smooth midventral scaels is described from the southermost ridge of the Northern Highlands of Chiapas physiographic region, Chiapas, Mexico. The new species is a medium-sized anole with most of the diagnostic characters of the A. schiedii group. The new species differs, however, from all species placed in this group by having narrower digital pads, terminal phalanges of the digits remarkably elongated relative to the penultimate ones, a well-developed dewlap in females, and 24 presacral vertebrae, and by attaining a slightly larger body size. The latter three characters are shared with A. johnmeyeri. The new species is compared with other species with smooth midventral scales in Mexico and northern Central America, and its potential inclusion in the A. schiedii group is also discussed.

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.

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.

Eighty-nine species of lizards, six of which polytypic (forming a total of 97 taxa), are presently known from Brazilian Amazonia. This number includes six species and one subspecies described as new to science in this paper: Stenocercus fimbriatus, Lepidoblepharis hoogmoedi, Leposoma osvaldoi, L. snethlageae, Tretioscincus oriximinensis, Tupinambis longilineus, and Anolis nitens tandai. Stenocercus dumerilii is resurrected from the synonymy of S. tricristatus. Bachia cophias is considered a junior synonym of B.flavescens. B. peruana is a new record from Brazil. Anolis nitens has priority over A. chrysolepis. The Amazonian Tupinambis is shown to be T. teguixin (of which T. nigropunctatus is a junior synonym). The name T. merianae should be used for T. teguixin sensu Boulenger (1885b). Mabuya ficta is a junior synonym of M. bistriata, while the name M. nigropunctata should be used for M. bistriata sensu Vanzolini \& Williams (1980). Of all species extensive descriptions and ecological data, if available, are presented. A zoogeographical analysis based on the combined distribution maps of the various species shows a main division in Amazonia of a western and an eastern fauna. A southwestern group is also recognised and, although defined by a smaller number of species, a Guianan group. The lizard fauna from Rondonia shows multiple affinities. The distribution of lizards in enclaves of open formations in Amazonia does not support the idea of continuous areas of savannas throughout Amazonia in relatively recent times.

A systematic review of the anoles (formerly known as Anolis concolor) of the western Caribbean islands of San Andres and Providencia, Colombia, indicates that each island population forms a distinct species. The two species differ from each other in size, arrangement of cephalic scales, number of subdigital lamellae, color of the dewlap and venter, and habitat utilization. The San Andres population should be known as Anolis concolor Cope, and the Providencia species as Anolis pinchoti Cochran. Anolis concolor is typical of single-anole-island species, being sexually divergent in size and habitat occurrence. Anolis pinchoti is smaller, and the sexes share the same habitat. Hypotheses considered to explain this condition were effect of geographic position, \"failed invasions\", predation by other lizards, and the possibility that A. pinchoti is a very recent colonist.

Auyantepui is an immense sandstone table mountain in the Venezuelan Guayana. This mesa did not appear on aviation maps and was unknown to the literate world prior to the late 1930s. It was explored from the air by Jimmy Angel, a bush pilot and colorful soldier of fortune for whom the world\’s highest waterfall is named (Angel Falls at the northern end of Auyantepui). About the same time, in 1937, Captain F\élix Cardona Puig and Gustavo Heny discovered an access crack in the sandstone, allowing ascent onto the southern end of the mesa. The first scientific exploration followed immediately\—the 1937\–1938 Phelps Venezuelan Expedition of the American Museum of Natural History made the first zoological and general botanical collections. Today, no tepui other than the \‘\‘Lost World\’\’ of Cerro Roraima is better known to the general public. The summit of Auyantepui has a known fauna of 24 species of amphibians and reptiles, including species added by the Robert G. Goelet American Museum\–TERRAMAR Expedition in 1994. This expedition collected 16 species during a month of fieldwork in the dry season (February), in five camps at elevations of 1700\–2100 m above sea level. All species known from the summit of Auyantepui are treated in this bulletin; illustrations where possible include tadpoles, bioacoustic spectrograms, and hemipenes. Four new species are described\—two frogs (Hypsiboas angelicus, n. sp., Eleutherodactylus auricarens, n. sp.), a lizard (Arthrosaura montigena, n. sp.), and a snake (Atractus guerreroi, n. sp.). Arthrosaura montigena possesses a hemipenial character not previously described\—an orifice (orificium) of unknown function, situated in the lobular crotch between the two lobes. Attention is called to a probably undescribed snake (Liophis \‘\‘miliaris\’\’ sensu lato) from the nearby Gran Sabana. The herpetofauna of the Auy\án summit comprises 12 families, 20 genera, and 24 species. This is compared with the known herpetofauna of the Chimant\á massif, lying less than 50 km southsoutheast of Auyantepui. Despite the proximity and similar dimensions, the summits of Auyantepui and Chimant\á have in common only 11\% of the combined number of species (4 of 36), 44\% of the genera (11 of 25), and 62\% of the families represented (8 of 13), showing that neighboring tepuis may have herpetofaunas very different from one another. Nonetheless, the adjacent mountains that constitute the more fragmented Chimant\áa massif are relatively close to one another and seem to have a unified herpetofauna.

A new species of anole is described from a region of wet limestone forest in the province of Santiago de Cuba in eastern Cuba. It is sympatric with its close relative Anolis isolepis and differs from that taxon in scalation and coloration. Variation in the two subspeciesof A. isolepis is reconsidered, and they are here regarded as separate species. These three small species with short limbs, a relatively flat head, striate head scales, and green coloration in the light phase are placed in the isolepis group of the carolinensis series. At least 14 and as many as 20 species of Anolis are sympatric in this region of eastern Cuba.

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.
