I'd say Triturus but which one is difficult to tell from that photo. I'd guess carnifex. Got any other shots?
 
check out the gallery. i saw a few pics that looked like it.
 
looks to me like a crested newt ( triturus )
 
with only that picture to work with I'd guess T. karelini...
 
Only this picture a friend had this picture and wanted to know what species it was, so I could find a site on the species. He thought it was a salamander, I said its a newt, but without a site about it I cant explain it to him well.

The great and italian crested can hybridize, so mabye this is a hybrid?
