Sceloporus teapensis
—
Teapa Scaly Lizard
I didn't get a picture, but rest assured that it looked very similar to the most common lizard on the USA's west coast, the Western Fence Lizard.
This species is sometimes considered the same as Sceloporus variabilis, but I believe the latest literature considers it a separate species.
