Anolis beckeri, also known commonly as Becker's anole and Becker's lichen anole, is a species of lizard in the family Dactyloidae. The species is native to Central America and southern North America.
The specific name, beckeri, is in honor of Belgian arachnologist Léon Becker.[3]
A. beckeri is found in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, southeastern Mexico (Campeche, Chiapas, Oaxaca, Quintana Roo, Tabasco, Veracruz), and northern Nicaragua.[2]
The preferred natural habitat of A. beckeri is forest, at altitudes of 2–900 m (6.6–2,952.8 ft).[1]
Medium-sized for its genus, A. beckeri may attain a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of 6 cm (2.4 in). The tail is relatively short, 1–1.5 times SVL.[2]
A. beckeri is oviparous.[2] Eggs are laid high in trees, in epiphytic bromeliads, and the adult female displays some parental care.[4]
