Variation in Anolis equestris
Last week, while going through some old pictures I had stored on my computer , I happened upon a few photos of A. equestris that I must have saved back when I used to surf the web for pictures of anoles. Taking a second to glance through the pictures for old times sake, I realized something: A. equestris is actually a quite variable species. Now I’m sure others besides myself have realized this before, the people who went about naming the long list of subspecies that I just found out this species has for example, but I can’t seem to find pictures of some of these subspecies so as to identify the animals in the photos, if they are indeed different subspecies that is, so I decided to post them here in hopes of getting an ID. I have chosen one photo for each of the different forms that I have noticed. I have my guesses about many of them and I’m pretty sure about a couple others. I have written my guess, if any, under each photo along with the photo reference; could anyone who knows the ID of a particular animal post their opinion in the comments? Thanks in advance!

Probably A. luteogularis or A. equestris verreonensis and also probably identical to the form shown in the third picture.
The dewlap of this form is pink.

Some of them are probably just A. e equestris or A. luteogularis; I sure hope that’s not the case though! Also, if anyone has observed any of the forms listed above (except the second one), or any other unusual individual of A. equestris, please post a photo in the comments if you have one.
