Hi, This lizard is an agamid species named Gonocephalus bornensis. It is the species which you have presented in three other photos. This great lizard is common in Danum Valley. All individuals at your four photos are either females or sub-adults. Adult males are larger and very prominent.

Regards,
Henrik
