Abstract

We report new localities for Anolis pseudokemptoni Köhler, Ponce, Sunyer & Batista, 2007, along the Serranía de Tabasará in the Comarca Ngöbe-Buglé of western Panama. These records extend the known geographic distribution of this lizard about 6 km eastward and 9 km northwestward, as well as the known vertical distribution approximately 470 m lower and 380 m higher. We also provide photos of specimens from different localities and comment on their morphology. No population of this Panamanian microendemic species, which is classifiable as Critically Endangered, lives inside a protected area.
