Abstract
ANTUNEZ-FONSECA, Cristopher A. et al. New records and range expansion of Norops sagrei (Squamata: Dactyloidae) in Honduras highlight the importance of citizen science in documenting non-native species. Caldasia [online]. 2022, vol.44, n.2, pp.325-331. Epub May 24, 2024. ISSN 0366-5232. https://doi.org/10.15446/caldasia.v44n2.94568.
Populations of Norops sagrei, an anole lizard native to Cuba, the Bahamas, and the Cayman Islands, are established in northern Honduras. Here, we report seven new records in six departments for this species in northern, western, central, and southern Honduras, summarize the invasion progress of N. sagrei in the country, and comment on the importance of citizen science in the documentation of non-native species.
