Sharp-nosed chameleon
The sharp-nosed chameleon (Kinyongia oxyrhina) is a chameleon native to the Uluguru and Udzungwa Mountains of Tanzania,[1][2] where it inhabits forests (also secondary), woodlands and plantations at an altitude of 1,400–1,900 m (4,600–6,200 ft) above sea level.[3] It reached up to c. 15 cm (6 in) in total length, with about half being the tail. Adult males have a distinct soft and blade-like horn on the nose where the tip is movable; females lack a horn. Its colours are very variable, but typically shades of brown, grey, green or rusty-red, and especially during the mating season may have some blue patches.[3] The sharp-nosed chameleon was scientifically described in 1988.[2] References
