The brown lizard that has invaded some areas of Florida is likely the brown anole (Anolis sagrei). Originally from the Bahamas and Cuba, this lizard has adapted well to the Florida environment and is now common in many areas. It is characterized by its brown coloration and can often be seen basking in the sun or climbing on vegetation. Its presence has raised concerns about its impact on local ecosystems and native species.
