Remarks:
Lemos-Espinal & Smith (2020) regarded utowanae, which is known from only one specimen, as a separate species, but without discussion.
The type locality of this taxon is Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico, but Poe (2014) suggested that it was actually collected on Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands.
How the specimen came to be associated with Mazatlán remains a mystery.

Remarks:
Regarded as a synonym of planiceps by Vanzolini & Williams (1970), revalidated by Gorzula & Señaris (1999), but synonymized again with planiceps by
Myers & Donelly (2008) and D'Angiolella, Gamble, Avila-Pires, Colli, Noonan & Vitt (2011).
Although they did not include eewi in their Venezuelan checklist, Rivas, Molina, Ugueto, Barros, Barrio-Amorós & Kok (2012) suspected it to be a valid species,
pending further studies.
Nicholson, Crother, Guyer & Savage (2012) listed eewi as a valid species, but the same authors did not mention the species in a subsequent work
(Nicholson, Crother, Guyer & Savage 2018), nor was it mentioned by
Poe, Nieto-Montes de Oca, Torres-Carvajal, Queiroz, Velasco, Truett, Gray, Ryan, Köhler, Ayala-Varela & Latella (2017).
It is provisionally retained as a valid species herein.

Remarks:
Status uncertain.
Although the type locality has often been cited as "Caracas" (Venezuela), the species is of Caribbean (original catalogue entry says Jamaica) or Central American
origin, hence reports from Venezuela (e.g., Donoso-Barros 1968; Peters & Donoso-Barros 1970; Pefaur 1992; La Marca 1997) are erroneous
(Rivas, Molina, Ugueto, Barros, Barrio-Amoros & Kok 2012).
Consequently, reports from Guyana (e.g., Parker 1935; Peters & Donoso-Barros 1970; Hoogmoed 1973) are also considered erroneous.

|
| |
Norops adleri Nicholson, Crother, Guyer & Savage 2012 |
Remarks:
The nominal species adleri was suggested to be synonymous with liogaster by Lieb (1981) in his unpublished Ph.D. dissertation, and therefore not
considered valid by Savage & Guyer (1989), however, it was not included in the synonymy of liogaster by Munoz-Alonso & Flores-Villela (1990), who considered
this synonymization to be premature.
More recently, Nieto-Montes de Oca, Poe, Scarpetta, Gray & Lieb (2013) provided supporting evidence for the synonymization.
Echegoyen (2009) listed liogaster from Jalisco, however, Köhler, Trejo-Pérez, Petersen & Méndez de la Cruz (2014) considered its distribution restricted to
Guerrero in their review of this and related anole species.
Cruz-Sáenz, Guerrero, Lazcano & Télles-López (2009) did not list liogaster for Jalisco either.

Norops simmonsi Savage & Guyer 1989 |
Other common names:
simmonsi: Simmons' Anole
Remarks:
Presence in Guerrero is uncertain.
The state is included in the distribution on the basis of a specimen examined by Köhler, Trejo-Pérez, Petersen & Méndez de la Cruz (2014), although the same authors surprisingly restrict the
species to Oaxaca.
Records of this species from Colima and Sinaloa are based on nebulosus (Reyes-Velasco, Grünwald, Jones & Ahumada-Carrillo 2020; Hardy & McDiarmid 1969).
Distribution:
Mexico
(Guerrero,
Oaxaca).
