Calumma Peltierorum Pictures?

Motherlode Chameleon · Oct 31, 2012

Calumma peltierorum is species of chameleon I have not been able to locate pictures of. It is reported to be an elephant eared chameleon that looks similar to Calumma malthe. Along with this similarity this rare species is not listed as threatened. Which all to often is not the case. Has anybody on the forums got access to pictures of this species?

Yes they belong to the brevicorne complex and can be distinguished from C.malthe by the colours and the numbers of gular spines.

I have a few pictures, but I can't post them, as they have copyrighs. Send me a pm with your mailadress.

There is also two pictures of a female in Glaw and Vences book, a Field guide to the amphibians and reptiles of madagascar.

I apologize I actually have got Glaw and Vences and did not recall seeing pictures of this species. I'm going to have to look again.
