DiagnosisDiagnosis (genus Panolopus). Species of Panolopus have (1) claw sheath, absent, (2) contact between the nasal and rostral scales, absent, (3) scales in contact with the nasal scale, four, (4) postnasal scales, one, (5) position of the nostril in the nasal scale, central, (6) keels on dorsal body scales, absent, (7) digits per limb, five, (8) longest toe lamellae, 12–22, (9) dorsal scale rows, 83–100, (10) relative head width, 10.6–15.5, (11) relative rostral height, 37.6–51.9, (12) relative frontonasal length, 1.93–2.94, (13) relative interparietal distance, 0.0691–0.911, (14) relative axilla-groin distance, 49.7–59.6.
From Advenus gen. nov., we distinguish Panolopus by the absence of a claw sheath (present in Advenus gen. nov.) and the relative axilla-groin distance (49.7–59.6 versus 60.0). From Caribicus gen. nov., we distinguish Panolopus by the absence of keels on the dorsal body scales (present in Caribicus gen. nov.), the relative frontonasal length (1.93–2.94 versus 2.98–3.32), and the relative axilla-groin distance (49.7–59.6 versus 67.1–69.1). From Celestus, we distinguish Panolopus by the relative axilla-groin distance (49.7–59.6 versus 60.9–66.4). From Comptus gen. nov., we distinguish Panolopus by the absence of keels on the dorsal scales (present in Comptus gen. nov.), relative rostral height (37.6–51.9 versus 53.2–65.5), and relative frontonasal length (1.93–2.94 versus 2.95–3.65). From Sauresia, we distinguish Panolopus by the absence of a claw sheath (present in Sauresia), digits per limb (five versus four), dorsal scale rows (83–100 versus 101–127), and the relative axilla-groin distance (49.7–59.6 versus 63.9–69.9). From Wetmorena, we distinguish Panolopus by the absence of a claw sheath (present in Wetmorena), the digits per limb (five versus four), and the relative axilla-groin distance (49.7–59.6 versus 59.9–71.4).

CommentFor illustrations see Fischer, 1886 (as Diploglossus ohlendorffii); Cochran, 1941 (as C. badius); Schwartz, 1964; not Mertens, 1939, or Cochran, 1941 (as C. costatus).

Subspecies: Celestus costatus badius has been elevated to species status.

Type species: Panolopus costatus COPE 1862: 494 is the type species of the genus Panolopus Cope 1862.

Habitat: Comptus and Panolopus have both ground and tree-adapted ecomorphs (Schools et al. 2022).
