    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Please help identify this lizard

I saw this lizard in bushes at my home in Boca Raton, Florida.
Doesn’t look like the usual three lizards we see around here: green iguana, anole and curly tail lizard.
Anyone know what it is?
No bigger than my index finger an probably weighed a lot less. Maybe a lissome 3-4 inches total.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Oh boy go catch that! I believe that's some sort of blue phase knight anole or a new species to the area. I've seen a fair amount of anoles here in Florida and that looks like its worth catching.
 
Sorry those pictures look as though they are tilted 90 degrees counterclockwise.

Not going to catch it. What would that be worth to anyone, anyway?
So if this is a knights anole, is that a variation on the same anole that I see about a million of every day alongside the curly tail lizards? Mostly the ones I’ve seen are brown(ish).

Thanks for helping so far.
