Anolis pogus, the St. Martin anole, Anguilla Bank bush anole or bearded anole, is a species of lizard belonging to the family Dactyloidae, the anoles. This lizard is restricted to the Caribbean island of Saint Martin, located in the Lesser Antilles. Its range used to include Anguilla, but it is now extirpated there. It may also have occurred on Saint Barthélemy.
