Common Stout Anole (Anolis hispaniolae)
Here's one in the midst of shedding its skin. Only the males have the big heads. The females are quite a bit smaller and proportioned more like other anole species.

Common Stout Anole (Anolis hispaniolae)
Of the five anole species I saw at Casa de Campo, these were by far the least wary of humans. This one hung out on the trellis of our veranda the entire week or so we were there, even after I caught it a couple of times for a closer look.
