The Antsingy leaf chameleon (Brookesia perarmata) is a species of lizards in the family Chamaeleonidae.

This chameleon includes a non-prehensile tail that assists them in locomotion within the leaf litter on the forest ground.

This chameleon dwells on the forest floor among the dead leaves which it uses for camouflage and climbs up low plant branches when it's time to sleep.

[8] There are many threats to the Antsingy leaf chameleon's habitat but their decline in population was exacerbated due to collection for pet trade.

These intricate leaf chameleons became a popular pet for many lizard enthusiasts in the 1980s and into the 90's and continue to draw attention from herpetoculturist.
