These very pretty anoles are common around Mindo. Like many tropical arboreal lizards, they are much easier to find at night when they reflect a flashlight beam in a different way than the surrounding vegetation does. The ones with a big tan vertebral stripe are females, and the ones with fine dark spots are males.

A few more males from a couple of nights later. It had been raining steadily in the early evening, leaving our anole friends covered with water drops.
