Anguilla Bank anole, Saint Martin I think this is a type of gecko but am not sure. I saw these all over the Caribbean but especially in French St.Martin near the water. Anguilla Bank anole,Anolis gingivinus

  Do you know who set the country? I think if it is French Saint Martin, it should be Saint Martin, not Sint Maarten which is the dutch country. Posted 8 years ago

    Not me, I took the location from the description and found the species very easily from this link above, but you are right Sint Maarten doesn't sound French :) Posted 8 years ago

Hi Ferdy.I am trying to be proactive now as we are going to travel to St.Croix( one of the US Virgin Islands) and I will try and be aware of nature there and different animals. I will also read up on the species there.Do you have any other info on St.Croix?I am leaving Dec 19th and will be there 2 weeks. Maybe i can find some interesting species there. Thanks,.Ellen Posted 8 years ago
