You spoke, we listened. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to renovate Anole Annals. Yesterday we unveiled a new look, but not just that — comments are working again!
Please bear with us over the next few days as we work out the minor issues with this transition. And if you have any ideas of ways to improve the site, let us know by email or comment below, or better yet, consider joining our board of editors to get in on the behind the scenes action!
I am an Assistant Professor of Biology at New York University. My first love is herpetology, but my lab works on urban evolutionary ecology in diverse organisms (but primarily anoles!).

The new site look is very nice. I have one caveat: can you make an effort to identify some of these ridiculously gorgeous exotic anoles you’re using to illustrate the masthead? Some of ’em are beaucoup breathtaking and I’d like to know what they are. I pretty much know all the ones running around down here in southwest Miami-Dade but these beauties…well, it’d be nice to know what they are until someone comes up with an Audubon-style full color (reinforced) coffee table compendium, you know?

Glad you like it! These photos (mostly) came from the Anole Annals calendar contest winners from 2019 and 2017. We will be adding more soon!
I’ll see what I can do about adding a header image guide. We are also planning a site section with information on every species.
An anole coffee table book… now there’s an idea… sounds like a task for Anole Annals contributors!

Sounds like a task for Hercules. You try and lift it.

Um…which reminds me, once a journalist famously asked Darwin what features best characterized God to him, and Darwin replied “a fondness for beetles.” If he had lived in Miami instead of Orpington, he might have replied “a fondness for anoles.”
