This observation lies outside the range iNat has for this species. This
could mean iNat's range is wrong, the ID is wrong, a vagrant occurrence,
or a range expansion!

Public coordinates shown as a random point within 10KM of the true coordinates. True coordinates are only visible to you and the curators of projects to which you add the observation.

Description
I spotted this lizard on the side of the trail as I was hiking on the Napali Coast, probably around noon. After looking it up in The EcoTraveller's Wildlife Guide to Hawaii, it appears to be a green anole, but with brown coloring. I don't think it had a throat flap (although you can't tell from the pic), so either it's a female or just a flap-less male.

Comments & Identifications
There are only so many vertebrates in the world. We can figure this one out...
The data quality assessment is a summary of an observation's accuracy. All
observations start as "casual" grade, and achieve
"research" grade when
the iNat community agrees with the observer's ID, where an "agreeing"
identification is one that matches exactly or is of a child taxon of the
observer's ID. For example, if Scott says it's a mammal and Ken-ichi
says it's Homo sapiens, then Ken-ichi agrees with Scott.
the observation has a date
the observation is georeferenced (i.e. has lat/lon coordinates)
the observation has a photo
Observations will revert to "casual" grade if the above conditions aren't met or
the community agrees the location doesn't looks accurate (e.g. monkeys in the middle of the ocean, hippos in office buildings, etc.)
the community agrees the organism isn't wild/naturalized (e.g. captive or cultivated by humans or intelligent space aliens)
