Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

The Cameroon sailfin chameleon or Cameroon two-horned mountain chameleon (Trioceros montium) is a species of chameleon endemic to Cameroon.[1][2] It has a very unusual appearance.[3]

Distribution and habitat

The Cameroon sailfin chameleon is found only in the Cameroonian highlands, including Mount Cameroon.[1][3] Because it is almost entirely restricted to rainforests ranging from Шаблон:Cvt above sea level, it is estimated only a few locations support populations of the species. However, it has also been found in small farms and gardens.[1]

Cameroon sailfin chameleons usually are greenish with markings in various other colors, but commonly are brown when stressed,[4] and males often turn bluish when displaying.[3] Distinguishing features on males include two large horns just above the upper jaw which are used for jousting and a prominent dorsal "sail".[3][4] The males can grow up to Шаблон:Cvt long and the females can grow up to Шаблон:Cvt long.[3][4]
