Stanley (Austin Stanley), 1932-2005 Language: Language of Materials: English Administrative Information Prefered Citation Smithsonian Institution Archives, Accession 17-092, A. Stanley Rand Papers Descriptive Entry This accession consists of film footage taken by A. Stanley Rand, a biologist specializing in the ecology and behavior of tropical reptiles and amphibians. After receiving his Ph.D. in biology from Harvard University in 1961, Rand served as a zoologist at the Departamento de Zoologia, Sao Paulo, Brazil. In 1964, he was hired as a biologist at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI). From 1974 to 1979, he served as Assistant Director at STRI and, in 1979, was named Senior Biologist. The majority of the footage in this accession documents the behavior of anoles throughout the Caribbean region and on several Eastern Pacific islands. Materials also include a small number of videotapes and a reel-to-reel audiotape.

  • A Phylogenetic Framework for the Evolution of Female Polymorphism in Anoles
    Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2011, 104, 303–317. With 3 figures A phylogenetic framework for the evolution of female polymorphism in anoles EVI A. D. PAEMELAERE1*, CRAIG GUYER1 and F. STEPHEN DOBSON1,2 1Department of Biological Sciences, 331 Funchess Hall, Auburn University, Auburn, AL 36849, USA 2Centre d’Ecologie Fonctionnelle et Evolutive, UMR CNRS 5175, 1919 route de Mende, 34293 Montpellier Cedex 5, France Received 10 January 2011; revised 19 May 2011; accepted for publication 19 May 2011bij_1742 303..317 Female pattern polymorphisms (FPP) are striking, poorly understood, and a major challenge to evolutionary theory. We examined the evolution of FPP in anoline lizards in a phylogenetic context. Accordingly, we used comparative analyses that traced the evolution of female pattern polymorphism over historical time, and overlaid the historical pattern on the biogeographical distribution of current species. Comparative analyses used a maximum likelihood approach with variable rates of trait evolution. We found that, among almost 180 well-described species, 52 exhibited FPP and most of these occurred on the Central American mainland. Pagel’s l=0.644 indicated not only a moderately strong phylogenetic signal in FPP among 162 species with sound estimates of phylogeny, but also independent evolution. Their common ancestor was not polymorphic (0.003% likelihood of FPP), and there were at least 28 gains or losses of FPP during phylogenetic history. The geographical distribution of FPP indicates that, in the Caribbean islands, it has been present for almost 20 million years, and that parallel evolution of FPP has taken place during that time, including independent evolution on Cuba, Hispaniola, and Puerto Rico.

  • Norops Grahami Global Invasive Species Database (GISD)
    FULL ACCOUNT FOR: Norops grahami Norops grahami System: Terrestrial Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Animalia Chordata Reptilia Squamata Polychrotidae Common name Graham's anole (English), common lizard (English), Jamaican anole (English) Synonym Anolis grahami , Gray, 1845 Anolis iodurus , Gosse, 1850 Anolis punctatissimus , Hallowell, 1856 Anolis heterolepis , Hallowell, 1856 Similar species Summary The Jamaican anole Norops grahami was introduced to Bermuda from Jamaica in 1905 to reduce populations of the fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata). In 1958 it was observed to predate heavily on beneficial insect species brought in to control introduced scale insects, subsequently resulting in the introduction of the great kiskadee (Pitangus sulphuratus), now a serious threat in itself. More recently N. grahami has been observed to predate on, and compete with juveniles of the 'Critically Endangered (CR)' Bermudian rock lizard (Eumeces longirostris). view this species on IUCN Red List Species Description Norops grahami has a mean snout to vent length of 68.9 mm for males (Losos, 1996). Notes Subspecies Norops grahami grahami is reported from western Jamaica and Cabarita Island off Port Maria; and N. g. aquarum from Portland and St. Thomas parishes, Jamaica (Reptiles Database, 2010). N. grahami is the most widespread and common of three introduced anole lizards present on Bermuda; the others are the Barbuda Bank tree anole (see Anolis leachii) and the Barbados anole (Anolis extremus) (Wingate, 1965). The effects of these lizards, particularly N. grahami led to the introduction of the great kiskadee (Pitangus sulphuratus) as a biocontrol agent in 1957. However, this biocontrol attempt was a failure; P. sulphuratus has been implicated in the population declines of native insect, bird and reptile species on Bermuda (Cheesman & Clubbe, 2007; Davenport et al., 2008).

  • Status and Conservation of the Reptiles and Amphibians of the Bermuda Islands
    Status and conservation of the reptiles and amphibians of the Bermuda islands Jamie P. Bacon1,2, Jennifer A. Gray3, Lisa Kitson1 1 Bermuda Zoological Society, Flatts FL 04, Bermuda 2 Corresponding author; email: [email protected] 3 Bermuda Government Department of Conservation Services, Flatts FL 04, Bermuda Abstract. Bermuda’s herpetofauna includes three species of amphibians, one fossil tortoise, two species of freshwater turtles, five species of marine turtles, and four species of lizards. The amphibians Eleutherodactylus johnstonei, E. gossei and Bufo marinus were all introduced in the late 1880s. Amphibian population declines, including the possible extirpation of E. gossei, prompted the initiation in 1995 of an on-going investigation. Research into the high deformity rates in B. marinus has indicated that survival and development of larvae are affected by contaminants in a number of ponds and by the transgenerational transfer of accumulated contaminants. Of the two emydid turtles in Bermuda, Malaclemys terrapin may be native and its population characteristics are being studied; Trachemys scripta elegans is considered invasive and efforts are underway to remove its populations from the wild. The sizeable resident Chelonia mydas population has been the focus of a mark- recapture study since 1968. Results indicate that Bermuda is currently an important developmental habitat for green turtles originating from at least four different nesting beaches in the Caribbean. Immature Eretmochelys imbricata also reside on the Bermuda Platform and genetics studies suggest that multiple Caribbean genotypes are represented in Bermuda’s hawksbill population. Caretta caretta do not appear to be regular inhabitants, but two known loggerhead nesting events have recently occurred (in 1990 and 2005) and post-hatchling loggerheads regularly strand after winter storms.
