Wikipedia Abstract

Anolis bimaculatus, the panther anole, is a species of anole lizard that is endemic to the Caribbean Lesser Antilles. It is found on the St. Kitts Bank of islands, which comprise Saint Kitts, Nevis, and Sint Eustatius. It is relatively common on Saint Kitts and Nevis, widespread up to around 300 m in elevation. It coexists throughout its range with A. schwartzi, a much smaller species that also differs in many aspects of its ecology and behavior. A former subspecies, A. b. leachi, was elevated to species status.
