Taxonomy
It was formerly thought to have a much wider range across Hispaniola including the Dominican Republic, and to have been introduced to Florida and Suriname, but a 2020 study found the syntypes of A. chlorocyanus to be conspecific with the syntype of the former Anolis coelestinus, a Haitian endemic anole. Thus, both species were synonymized, and the widespread Hispaniolan population was described as a new species, the Dominican green anole (A. callainus). Due to this, A. chlorocyanus was restricted to only the population from Haiti.[3]
