The Barbados anole (Anolis extremus) is a species of anole (US: ) lizard that is native to Barbados, an island-nation in the Caribbean. Originally endemic to Barbados, it has since been introduced to Saint Lucia and Bermuda. It was previously treated as a subspecies of Martinique's anole, A. roquet.
Males have pale lavender to blue-gray heads, with blue eyelids. Their dorsal surfaces are deep green with dark markings and occasionally white spots, and their bellies are yellow. Females are smaller and duller in color and may have a mid-dorsal stripe.
Sightings have been reported in Florida since the 1990s, though this is likely due to repeated introductions and escapes, as a sustained, breeding population has not been confirmed.
