Close up of a Puerto Rican Crested Anole. Compared to many other anoles, it is a stocky, muscular and aggressive, [13] although it is a small (compared to Central American anoles) [14] to moderately-sized species (compared to insular Caribbean anoles).

Anoles will eat pest insects, like this crested anole with a cockroach. Anoles are model organisms often studied in fields such as ecology, behavior, physiology and evolution. [3] [7] [17] The Carolina (or green) anole is the most-studied anole species, with the earliest dedicated studies being more than 100 years old, from the late 1800s. [97]
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 remain.
Artistic representation of the extinct Puerto Rican shrew. The richness of mammals in Puerto Rico, like many other islands, is low relative to mainland regions. The present-day native terrestrial mammal fauna of Puerto Rico is composed of only 13 species, all of which are bats. 18 marine mammals, including manatees, dolphins and whales, occur in Puerto Rican waters.
