Round Rock is an uninhabited island in the British Virgin Islands, to the south of Virgin Gorda, east of Ginger Island[1] and close to Fallen Jerusalem Island.
The island provides habitat for the crested anole (Anolis cristatellus wileyae),[2] the common Puerto Rican ameiva (Pholidoscelis exsul exsul), the Lesser Virgin Islands Skink (Spondylurus semitaeniatus),[3] and the big-scaled least gecko (Sphaerodactylus macrolepis).[4]
