The species is endemic to Jamaica, but has been introduced to Florida. EtymologyThe specific name, garmani, is in honor of American herpetologist Samuel Garman.[2] Geographic rangeThe Jamaican giant anole is native to Jamaica. It has been introduced into Florida. There are recent records from Grand Cayman, but it is unclear if it has become established there.[3] DescriptionThe Jamaican giant anole is by far the largest species in the Norops group, with adult males having a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of {{convert|10-13.1|cm|in|abbr=on}} and females {{convert|8-8.4|cm|in|abbr=on}}.[4] Adults are generally {{convert|15|-|27|cm|in|abbr=on}} in total length, including tail,[5] with a maximum reported total length of {{convert|30.5|cm|in|abbr=on|0}}.[6] Although generally green, it turns dark brown during the night.[6] The male has an orange-centered yellow dewlap, which is small and dusky in the female.[5] See also
