Anolis Hacienda Chulata, 2000', Dep't. Sonsonate, El Salvador May 3, 1942 # 1553 This large Anolis was shot on the tile porch floor of a ranch house. At the time of shooting, it was marked much like a Basiliscus vittatus, the general color being dark greenish-brown, with several very heavy black transverse bars on the dorsum. The interstices between the bars showed some black marking. After almost about 5 minutes in chloroform, the bars had entirely disappeared, and the ground color had changed to a light pea-green. Along the middorsal line, there are 5 dusky areas, all that remains of the black bars. The black chevrons on the nape, and the dark bar over the orbits, were the same before & after. The sculp was also much changed - pale brownish-red in the center, the outer margin orangy red, the whole flecked over all with white. The venter was yellowish-white before & after chloroform.
