Bright green lizard, fairly small. Brown tail with black rings. (I'm not so good with reptiles) Edit: most likely a juvenile green iguana.

Thank you, I agree, I think it's a juvenile Green Iguana
they are a type of iguana, this one being a jeuvinle
Ctenosaur lizard
Hmm, that one is endemic to N. America and some of Mexico. I think it might be a green tree anole (Norops biporcatus), but I'm not sure.
This is the closes i could find. It may or may not be the right one. I could be totally wrong but figured i would try to assist.
