DistributionHispaniola: Isla Saona, and (questionably) Isla Catalinita.

Type locality: environs of Mano Juan, Isla Saona, República Dominicana.  
Reproductionoviparous 
TypesHolotype: MCZ 156221 
DiagnosisDiagnosis: A species of the genus Audantia that differs from all congeners by the combination of having (1) smooth ventral scales; (2) male dewlap dirty white with or without yellow suffusions; (3) no dark gular streaks in males; (4) no patch of enlarged scales in nuchal region; (5) a double row of weakly enlarged (usually less than twice the size of adjacent scales), smooth and non-mucronate vertebral scales; (6) two or three sublabial scales in contact with infralabials; (7) 170–204 scales around midbody in males; and (8) enlarged scales on anterior surface of thigh smooth (Fig. 23 in Köhler et al. 2019). 
CommentSimilar species: A. cybotes, as which it has been treated in much of the older literature.
