There are many contenders, but my favorite is Anolis sericeus, seen above from the Kanahau research station on the Honduran island of Utila, and another photo below from Chiapas, Mexico.
Professor of Biology and Director of the Living Earth Collaborative at Washington University in Saint Louis. I've spent my entire professional career studying anoles and have discovered that the more I learn about anoles, the more I realize I don't know.

No doubt! A lot of cool variation within populations, too.

I agree, certainly is a cool dewlap! I also really like N. Johnmeyeri! The sexual dimorphism is awesome!
