Holotype: ANSP 11403 [Anolis macropus] 
DiagnosisDiagnosis: A brownish/greyish anole with granular, weakly keeled dorsals, and larger (but relatively small), smooth or weakly keeled ventrals; 115-160 scales around midbody. Digital expansions well-developed, expanded lamellae under fourth toe about twice as wide as distal phalanx. Scales on posterior part of snout relatively small, keeled. Supraorbital semicircles separated by two or three, occasionally one, scales. Suboculars mostly separated from supralabials by one row of scales (occasionally just in contact). Tibia length 0.27-0.33 (0.30 ± 0.01) times the SVL. One or more narrow, light stripes across anterior part of chin; narrow, slightly oblique light stripes across limbs. Dewlap orange/red, moderately large in males, smaller in females. Maximum SVL 58 mm (from Avila-Pires 1995: 111).
