Equatorial Anole, Rio Ñambi, Colombia We arrived at the accommodation at the Rio &Ntilde;ambi reserve, and it was a bit of a low arrival. We found it in a very poor state with little to no facilities, lots of noise from construction work, and hostile staff. Not the little paradise in the jungle we had anticipated. Things did turn around for the better later on, luckily. This jungle dragon was found in the garden of the reserve, we found it by its loud squeaky call. Manuel captured it so that we could have a quick look at the dewlap, for identification.<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/77967/equatorial_anole_-_portrait_rio_ambi_colombia.html" title="Equatorial Anole - portrait, Rio &Ntilde;ambi, Colombia"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/2/77967_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=IbnE90R0fsY0oUXwoZblSk1nlT0%3D" width="134" height="152" alt="Equatorial Anole - portrait, Rio &Ntilde;ambi, Colombia We arrived at the accommodation at the Rio &Ntilde;ambi reserve, and it was a bit of a low arrival.

The Equatorial Anole

Anolis aequatorialis is immediately recognizable for its multicolored dewlap, which is marbled with black. It also has a baroque combination of irregular patches, streaks, reticulations and a series of dark vertebral chevrons on a normally olivaceous background.
