Veiled Chameleon (15 inches long) lives in Yemen grasslands Most chameleon species evolved a basic camouflage coloring and pattern which blends with the land and trees they live in. Variations in the light level, the surrounding temperature, or his emotions can make a chameleon change color. They alter their color like we blush. An angry chameleon darkens with rage. "We do know that non-chameleon relatives have the ability to change color," says David B. Wake, professor of integrative biology at the University of California at Berkeley. "Color change in lizards, in general, is associated with temperature." Many lizard species darken to absorb more solar energy and warm up, especially in the morning. Chameleons, however, change colors faster than other lizards and more dramatically, says Bruce C. Jayne, herpetology professor at the University of Cincinnati. The capacity, moreover, is universal among all chameleon species. Thus, this ability probably evolved long ago in the ancestor of all present day chameleon species.

Medium: Watercolor, Gouache Dimensions: 16" x 12" Date: I've always been a big fan of lizards and reptiles. I don't know why, just always have been. My mother used to tell me stories about the big 2 or 3 foot chameleon she had. She adored him. Her chameleon and my parents' dog didn't get along as well though. I thought of her chameleon while I painted this illustration. The painting took me a little time - I tried to get every detail just right. There is some gouache for the highlights.

Bodyplan As chameleons went from flatfooted ground dwelling lizards to arboreal aces, their bodies have undergone a series of changes that have allowed these animals to better survive in their environments. The body The chameleon bodyplan differs from that of most lacertilians in that it is more laterally flattened. This setup has serves a two fold purpose. First it makes the lizard larger to predators and rivals and second it allows them to better blend in with the surrounding foliage (a laterally flattened chameleon has a better chance of not casting a shadow on its branch than a more dorsoventrally centered lizard. To aid in the area of scare tactics, chameleons also possess an intricate series of lungs. With the exception of varanids, chameleons possess more complex lung structures than other lizards. In some species the lungs extend virtually throughout the body, allowing the chameleon to puff up for defensive and courting displays. Some have smooth, undivided lungs while others possess complex, partitioned ones. When a chameleon feels the need to look large and in charge it can inflate its lungs to increase their size. The degree of inflation depends on the chameleon and the situation. Unlike an anole or iguana, chameleons possess appendages that were made for clamping onto the various twigs and branches in their environment, thus making them better capable of going out on a limb :)

72. Madagascar -- A World Apart: Creature Features Other lizards, like the green anole, can also change color color change is much lessdramatic than the vivid, distinct color and pattern changes of chameleons. http://www.pbs.org/edens/madagascar/creature3.htm

A Truly Bizarre Lizard 59 different species existing nowhere outside of Madagascar. Beyond their uniqueness to the island, chameleons are unique creatures in their own right. Known for their ability to change color, they can be seen wearing a variety of colors, including brown, green, blue, yellow, red, black or white. Communication is an important reason behind these color changes. With color, chameleons can communicate with others, expressing attitudes such as their willingness to mate. Contrary to popular belief, chameleons cannot display limitless colors and do not change colors in a camouflage response to their surroundings. Instead, their skin changes in response to temperature, light, and mood. Other lizards, like the green anole, can also change color. But this green-to-brown color change is much less dramatic than the vivid, distinct color and pattern changes of chameleons. allow chameleons the ability to survey the world with nearly 360-degree vision. Chameleons belong to their own subfamily, Chamaeleoninae, which is divided into two tribes: Brookesiini (dwarf chameleons) and Chamaeleonini (typical chameleons). Currently it is believed that 134 chameleon species exist, 33 Brookesiini species and 100 Chamaeleonini species. Eight new species of dwarf chameleons have been recently discovered since 1990.

REPTILIA - Squamata 10313 South Sunnylane Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73160 sales@skullsunlimited.com 1-800-659-SKULL Use Our Search Engine to Search Skulls Unlimited The class Reptilia is divided into four orders: Turtles Lizards and Snakes Crocodiles , and the Tuatara . The living reptiles are comprised of Turtles (order Chelonia) about 250 species; the Lizards and Snakes (order Squamata) about 5700 species; the Crocodilians (order Crocodylia), about 21 species; and the Tuatara (order Rhynchocephalia) only one species. Reptiles are cold blooded vertebrate animals. Many characteristics define Reptiles, some of which are dry scaled skin, internal fertilization, and three to four chambered hearts. They inhabit many environments. But most, channeled by cold bloodedness, are confined to warmer habitats. Reptiles may be aquatic, semi-aquatic or terrestrial, as well as arboreal. Reptiles range in size considerably. The longest reptile is the Reticulated Python, reaching 33 feet in length. The heaviest living reptile is the Leather Back Sea Turtle, which has attained 1,600 pounds in weight. The smallest Reptile is possibly the Dwarf Gecko that reaches only about 1.3 inches in length. The Reptilian skull ranges from the reduced, loosely joined, or kinetic skull of snakes to the large, solid skull of the crocodiles. One characteristic identifying a Reptile skull is a single ball-and-socket connection (condyle) at the head-neck joint instead of two, as in mammals, and an incomplete or complete partition (the secondary palate) along the roof of the mouth, separating the food and air passageways so that breathing can continue while the food is being chewed.

77. Chameleons' Tongues Give Up Their Secret But this only works for small prey such as insects. Chameleons areknown to feed on larger animals such as lizards and birds. But http://www.anapsid.org/chamtongues.html

Melissa Kaplan's Herp Care Collection Last updated August 9, 2002 Chameleons' Tongues Give Up Their Secret New Scientist , October 21, 2000 How do chameleons manage to grab big creatures like birds using just their tongues? A Belgian scientist has come up with the answer: chameleons suck. Many reptiles use their tongues to capture prey, and most rely on their tongue's rough surface and sticky coating of mucus to get a good grip on a target. But this only works for small prey such as insects. Chameleons are known to feed on larger animals such as lizards and birds. But to catch animals of this size, they would need an unfeasibly big tongue with a huge surface. "It's going to be so big, it's going to be bigger than their head," says Anthony Herrel at the University of Antwerp. "It made us think there's something weird going on here." To find out the chameleon's secret, Herrel collaborated with researchers at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff to film them feeding. Head-on shots taken using high-speed video cameras showed the tongue changing shape just before making contact with the prey. "A couple of milliseconds before the tongue hits, the end forms a kind of suction pad. It looks like a bit like a baseball glove," says Herrel. Subsequent frames from Herrel's video showed that once the suction cup had stuck to the prey, muscles in the tongue contracted to draw the cup back, increasing the suction.
