100% Trioceros cristatus. The one in the front of the picture is a male, in the background there are females too (male = brown, female = green).

I stand corrected, I always thought Cristatus were part of the Chamaeleo Species. Still, at least i was correct in a way, it is still Cristatus! lol
I haven't owned cristatus, but there are several persons on this forum who do and can provide details about their care. In the meantime, I can say that they like cool temperatures, high humidity and lots of water. They are among the most humidity loving of chameleons. I have heard some owners say that they are shy and therefore should be provided with plenty of foliage.
If you live in Phoenix, these are factors to weigh carefully before diving in to this species.
