Anolis cybotes
Species of reptile
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anolis cybotes, the large-headed anole, Tiburon stout anole, or Hispaniolan stout anole, is a species of anole endemic to the Tiburon Peninsula of Haiti.[1][2] Reports from other places likely refer to other species that were formerly included in Anolis cybotes.[2][3] This species gets its name from the male's strangely large head. It is often brownish in color with lighter stripes on the flanks.
