↑ Conservation status, where available, is from the IUCN Red List and is indicative of the status of the species as a whole, not just populations on Saint Vincent.
↑ Malhotra & Thorpe 1999 instead records M. bistriata as the sole Mabuya species in the Lesser Antilles; many of its Caribbean populations have since been reassigned.
↑ Powell & Henderson 2005, p. 74. Malhotra & Thorpe 1999 reports the Saint Vincent species as Corallus hortulanus, of which it was formerly described as a subspecies.
