Geographic range

It is native to the island of Saint Vincent, and has been introduced to Trinidad.

Description

Males, which reach 74 mm snout-to-vent (about 3 inches), are green to green-blue, with blue stippling on the head and anterior trunk. They have yellow coloring on the jaws and ventral surface, and the area around the eye is dark. Males have a large dewlap that extends into the abdominal region. Females are duller and have a smaller dewlap.

Behavior

It typically perches at low heights, below around 3 m (10 feet).

gollark: I think I read that the ESP32's I²S hardware could do something vaguely PWM-like up to 80MHz.
gollark: I don't know *that* much. It just seems like it might require a lot of routing table entries on every node to work.
gollark: Based on skimming the disaster radio routing protocol bit, it doesn't really have any defenses against malicious devices fiddling with routing, and may scale poorly (not sure exactly how the routing tables work).
gollark: Not the hardwarey/RF stuff, more like how you can efficiently do routing (even in the face of possibly malicious devices connected) and whatnot.
gollark: Right now mesh networking is still quite early in its life and I don't think many of the problems have been worked out entirely yet.
