Calumma fallax
—
Deceptive Chameleon
This species is called "Deceptive Chameleon" because they looked so similar to Calumma nasutum. It turns out they weren't the only ones; a later study split Calumma nasutum into a bunch of different species.
Here is a list of all the reptiles and frogs I saw on this 2023 trip to Madagascar.
