The Saba Black iguana (melanoderma iguana), also known as the painted black iguana, is a new classification the species went through a reclassification when scientist realized there was sufficient evidence to distinguish them from the iguana, iguana classification a group which they were initialized filled under.
This species lives on the islands of Saba and Montserrat in the Caribbean. this iguana produces more melanistic morph then the Green Iguana (iguana iguana)
Resulting in a dark black or brown coloration. The coloration is thought to be due to a genetic mutation that causes an overproduction of melanin.
The Saba Island Black iguana is larger than the green iguana, with adults reaching up to 6 feet in length.
They have a colorful dewlap, high dorsal spikes, and no horns on the snout. The black facial patch between the eye and tympanum is also a distinguishing characteristic.
