摘要

摘要/ ABSTRACT摘要:我们描述了洪都拉斯西南部Lenca高地过渡型和阔叶云雾混合林中一个隐蔽的新物种，1830年的Norops Wagler, Norops caceresae。这个种群以前被认为与危地马拉、萨尔瓦多和墨西哥的Norops crassulus (Cope, 1864)是同源的，尽管它与这些种群中的任何一个都完全脱节(> 100公里)。最近的分子研究揭示了该种群与所有其他N. crassulus物种群之间一致的，深层的线粒体和核差异，促使对该种群进行彻底的形态学研究。该新种在外部形态上与狭裂棘猴最为相似，但在分子特征、分布和形态上很容易区分。

A Cryptic New Species of Anole (Squamata: Dactyloidae) from the Lenca Highlands of Honduras, Previously Referred to as Norops crassulus (Cope, 1864)

ABSTRACT We describe a cryptic new species of Norops Wagler, 1830, Norops caceresae, from mixed transitional and broadleaf cloud forest formations in the Lenca Highlands of southwestern Honduras. This population was previously considered conspecific with Norops crassulus (Cope, 1864) of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Mexico, despite it being entirely disjunct (> 100 km) from any of those populations. Recent molecular work revealed consistent, deep mitochondrial and nuclear distinctiveness between this population and all other anoles of the N. crassulus species group, prompting a thorough morphological investigation of this population. This new species is most similar in external morphology to N. crassulus sensu stricto, but is readily distinguished by molecular distinctiveness, distribution, and morphology.

期刊介绍： Annals of Carnegie Museum is a quarterly journal that publishes peer-reviewed short and medium-length original scientific contributions in organismal biology, earth sciences, and anthropology, in 40 by 52.5 pica format (168 by 220 mm or 6-5/8 by 8-5/8 inches). Subject matter must be relevant to Carnegie Museum of Natural History scientific sections or Powdermill Nature Reserve (PNR), preferably with connection to the Carnegie collection and/or personnel. Carnegie Museum staff and research associates receive publication priority, but others are encouraged to submit papers, especially those manuscripts explicitly based on the Carnegie collection.
