The Anolis carolinensis series is a proposed clade or subgroup of closely related mid-sized trunk crown anoles (US: / ə ˈ n oʊ. l i z / ⓘ) within the genus Anolis. It was created by Nicholson et al. in 2012 and defined as containing 13 species, a few examples are listed below. [1]
Anolis is a genus of anoles (US: / ə ˈ n oʊ. l i z / ⓘ), iguanian lizards in the family Dactyloidae, native to the Americas. With more than 425 species, [ 1 ] it represents the world's most species-rich amniote tetrapod genus, although many of these have been proposed to be moved to other genera, in which case only about 45 Anolis species ...

Traditionally, all the true anoles were included in the genus Anolis and some continue to use this treatment, [181] in which case it is the largest genus of reptile. [ 1 ] [ 30 ] An attempt of dividing this huge genus was already made in 1959–1960, when they were placed in two major groups, the so-called "alpha anoles" (comprising most anole ...
The brown anole belongs to the family and genus, Datyloidae and Anolis, respectively. [26] The most closely related species to Anolis sagrei is Anolis nelsoni, also called Nelson's anole. [26] [27] The brown anole has a shorter snout length than the green anole. [16] The green anole, or Anolis carolinensis, is green or light brown patterned. [16]

[3] [4] He wrote his dissertation, titled 'Phylogeographic history and temperature-mediated evolution of the green anole, Anolis carolinensis' on the evolution of the green anole lizard. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] After his PhD he became a National Science Foundation Research Fellow at the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana , working with Julian Catchen ...
