Investigations by Richard E. Etheridge on the osteology of _Anolis_, including those species here being considered, have revealed relatively constant differences in the parasternalia and in the caudal vertebrae. The application of Etheridge's findings to anoline systematics must await the completion of his study. The carination of the scales on the snout _versus_ smooth scales there seems to be the only significant character given by Bocourt that distinguishes _A. Nebuloides_ from _A. nebulosus_. The difference in the color of the throat fan, which is apparent only in living individuals, is more striking. Obviously more than one species is represented, as is borne out by the differences in the color of the throat fan and in the osteology, but there is uncertainty about the correct name for each species. On the strength of Bocourt's diagnosis of keeled snout scales in _A. nebuloides_, I am applying that name to the population in Oaxaca and _A. nebulosus_ to the specimens from Michoacán. As arranged here, the two species can be distinguished, as follows: _A. nebulosus._--Dorsal scales only slightly smaller than the ventral scales; snout scales usually smooth; throat-fan bright orange in adult males. _A. nebuloides._--Dorsal scales somewhat larger than the ventral scales; snout scales having a low keel; throat-fan pink in adult males. With respect to geographic distribution, _A. nebulosus_ has been collected from southern Sinaloa southward to Michoacán. The lizards here referred to _A. nebuloides_ have been taken only in pine-oak forest on the mountain slopes near Oaxaca City. Zweifel and Norris (1955:233) reported anoles with pink throat-fans from southern Sonora; possibly those specimens are _A. nebuloides_; I have not examined them. I have seen several preserved specimens from the vicinity of Tehuantepec, Oaxaca. Although they probably belong to this group, those specimens differ from both _A. nebulosus_ and _A. nebuloides_ in their larger size, relatively larger head, and much larger throat fan. Aside from the minor variation in scutellation, specimens of _Anolis nebulosus_ from Michoacán vary greatly in coloration. Usually the females have some form of a broad middorsal pale-colored band. In life this is dull yellow, tan, or orange. Two females from Dos Aguas are strikingly different; one (UMMZ 119521) has a broad middorsal orange stripe that is scalloped laterally and bordered by gray. The other (UMMZ 119081) has a narrow middorsal cream-colored line. Males usually are unicolor brown or olive-tan; sometimes the middorsal region is darker. Some individuals have dark cross-bands or chevrons on the dorsum. One male from Dos Aguas (UMMZ 119080) has a cream-colored lateral stripe.
