Cnemidophorus ruthveni is a species of teiid lizard endemic to Bonaire and commonly known as the Bonaire whiptail.[2] It was formerly considered a subspecies of Cnemidophorus murinus, commonly known as Laurent's whiptail, but that name is now restricted to the form found on the island of Curacao.[3]
