An Anolis (Sauria, Iguanidae) in amber

James D. Lazell

Anolis electrum sp. nov.--described on the basis of two partial specimens in amber from Chiapas, Mexico--is believed to be Oligocene or Miocene in age. It is thus the earliest record of this lizard genus. The new species has the characteristic digital pads of Anolis very well developed and is unique in combining small, uniform middorsals, smooth, subimbricate ventrals, and small scales around the interparietal with unicarinate limb scales.
