Anolis maculiventris. green—the regional race A. biporcatus parvauritus Williams may prove to be a distinct species; and A. chloris gorgonae Barbour (variously cited as A. chloris or A. gorgonae) is a sky-blue insular race of the common green mainland species A. chloris Boulenger. Parker (1926) listed two additional anoles from Gorgona Island whose presence there remains unconfirmed. His two specimens unfortunately seem to have been misplaced while in one of the authors' (SCA) care: BMNH , listed originally as A. "'fasciatus,'"' is a juvenile yl. chocorum Williams and Duellman, a rain forest species found sporadically between Costa Rica and western Colombia; BMNH , listed as A. ''lemnis- catus,'' appears indistinguishable from specimens of A. tropido- gaster, a bush and grassland anole found in Panama and northern Colombia. Peters and Donoso-Barros' (1970: 48) undocumented mention of A. "'binotatus''' on Gorgona might refer to A. medemi. Anolis medemi is closely related to A. maculiventris. Scale count ranges overlap almost completely. A. medemi has 2-3 scales be- tween the supraorbital semicircles, whereas maculiventris usually has 3—4, with no (Ecuadorian) or only occasional (Colombian specimens) counts of 2. Other scale counts cannot be distinguished even modally. The color of the male dewlap is nearly identical. Both species almost always have a round dark spot on the back.
