The chameleons are a group of laterally compressed lizards with prehensile tails. There are over 150 species worldwide, and they are part of the family Chamaeleonidae, but there is no one specific scientific name beyond that. The Chamaeleonidae are arranged into two subfamilies, Chamaeleoninae and Brookesiina (dwarfs). These two groups are further subdivided into about 9 more subgroups, and then further divided into the afformentioned 150+ species.

Sleeping sickness is also known as trypanosomiasis or African sleeping sickness. It's caused by a small parasite that leads to a serious infection in the brain and the meninges (the covering of the brain and spinal cord). African trypanosomiasis, or sleeping sickness, is caused by Trypanosoma brucei parasites in sub-Saharan Africa and is transmitted by the tsetse fly (Glossina).
African trypanosomiasis is caused by two species of Trypanosoma brucei: Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (West African) and Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (East African). Both species of Trypanosoma are transmitted from human to human through the bite of the tsetse fly (Glossina) which is only found in rural parts of Africa. However, trypanosomes can also be transmitted from mother to child as the parasite can cross the placenta in the blood and infect the baby while it is still in the uterus.
Once the brain is affected it results in changes in behavior, confusion, poor coordination, difficulties with speech and disturbance of sleep (sleeping through the day and insomnia at night), hence the term ‘sleeping sickness’.
Without treatment, African trypanosomiasis is fatal.
Four drugs are registered for treating African trypanosomiasis and are administered free of charge to countries where the disease is a problem. Pentamidine, Suramin, Melarsoprol, and Eflornithine.

Binomial means two names. Which means that snakes are generally labeled by Genus before Species, and in some instances, a Subspecies. For instance, if you're trying to generalize the garter snake you just found, you would label it as: Thamnophis sp. With Thamnophis being the genus and sp. being the species. Same with rattlers (Crotalus), Pythons (Python), etc... But if you are trying to pinpoint a certain snake to the species, you would use the format of: Genus sp. For instance, using common herpetofauna, the common garter snake would be Thamnophis sirtalis with sirtalis being the species. But if you were trying to say it was a two banded garter, it would be Thamnophis hammondii. Western Diamondback: Crotalus atrox, Timber rattlesnake: Crotalus Horridus, Python regius: Ball or Royal Python.
