	Green Anole
		The green anole is most easily distinguished form the similar brown anole (Anolis sagrei) by green or lightly patterned brown coloration, pinkish throat fan, and by range.
		Habits: Anoles are active by day in warm weather and often bask in vegetation, occasionally charging away from a basking spot to grab and inset or chase off a rival anole.
		Although the green anole is the only anole species native to the U.S., several other species have been introduced in Florida and are expanding their ranges northward.

		Answer: The "nice green chameleons" are likely green anoles, also known as American anoles, and the brown lizards are probably brown anoles (anolis sagrei), a foreign species that made its way here at least 10 years ago, said Domingo Cravalho, animal specialist with the state Department of Agriculture.
		According to the Institute for Biological Invasions -- invasions.bio.utk.edu/invaders/sagrei.html -- "The brown anole is thought to be responsible for a dramatic decline of previously stable urban and rural populations of the green anole, the only anole native to the United States."
		Green anoles often are mistakenly called chameleons because of their ability to change color because of stress or depending on the background, Cravalho noted.
