Enyalioides altotambo, the Alto Tambo woodlizard, is a species of lizards in the family Hoplocercidae. It is endemic to the tropical northwestern Andes in Ecuador. It is named after its type locality, Alto Tambo in the Esmeraldas Province. It differs from its congeneric species by possessing smooth and homogeneous (size) dorsal scales, a brown iris, and lacking circular and keeled scales on its flanks.[1][2]
