Anolis gadovii

Anolis gadovii, also known commonly as Gadow's anole and el abaniquillo de Gadow in Mexican Spanish, is a species of lizard in the family Dactyloidae.

[2] The specific name, gadovii, is in honor of German ornithologist Hans Friedrich Gadow.

[1][2] The preferred natural habitat of A. gadovii is forest near rivers and streams, at altitudes from sea level to 1,300 m (4,300 ft).

[1] A. gadovii is the only Mexican Anolis species with a dorsal color pattern of dark wavy lines and blotches.

Moderate-sized for its genus, males may attain a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of 7.6 cm (3.0 in).
