Chamaeleo
Chamaeleo chamaeleonThe common chameleon
It does vary from type to type of different chamaeleons however the binomial name for the animal referred to as the "Common Chamaeleon" is: 'Chamaeleo Chamaeleon' Furthermore the scientific classification of the common chamaeleon is: Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Reptilia Order: Squamata Suborder: Sauria Family: Chamaeleonidae Genus: Chamaeleo
Charles Klaver has written: 'Phylogeny and classification of the Chamaeleonidae (Sauria) with special reference to hemipenis morphology' -- subject(s): Chamaeleo, Chameleons, Phylogeny, Classification, Generative organs, Hemipenis
The seven levels of classification for a lizard are Kingdom (Animalia), Phylum (Chordata), Class (Reptilia), Order (Squamata), Family (Varanidae, Agamidae, etc.), Genus (Anolis, Chamaeleo, etc.), and Species (e.g., Anolis carolinensis for the Carolina anole).
The Namaqua chameleon (Chamaeleo namaquensis) typically measures about 15 to 30 centimeters (6 to 12 inches) in length. Males are generally larger than females, and they can vary in size depending on their age and environmental factors. These chameleons are known for their distinctive color changes and adaptations to their arid habitats.
There are millions of species of lizards, and hundreds of genus, like Rhacodactylus and Pogona, what you must mean is either order or class or maybe even family. all reptiles are in the class Reptilia, and most lizards are in the order squamata. Then for family it gets more specific, geckos are in geckonidae, and agamas are in agamidae, and so on.
The common chameleon, scientifically known as Chamaeleo chamaeleon, is primarily found in parts of Africa, particularly in regions such as Madagascar, and it also inhabits parts of southern Europe and the Middle East. These chameleons prefer warm, arid environments and can often be found in trees and shrubs where they can blend in with their surroundings. Their ability to change color helps them adapt to their environment and communicate with other chameleons.
Chamaeleo calyptratus. - this is entirely incorrect due to the fact that this is just a binomial name for a species known as the veiled chameleon or yemen chameleon. chamaeleo is just the name of the genus and not the family. technically speaking, i think this answers your question that the the family that all these lizards belong to is chameleonidae
