Abstract

Examination of the type material of Anolis bourgeaei Bocourt revealed that the lectotype is referable to Norops laeviventris (Wiegmann), and the paralectotype is a Norops sericeus (Hallowell). I conclude that the nominal taxon A. bourgeaei Bocourt is a junior synonym of N. laeviventris (Wiegmann).
