The sharp-nosed chameleon (Kinyongia oxyrhina) is a chameleon native to the Uluguru and Udzungwa Mountains of Tanzania,[1] where it inhabits forests (also secondary), woodlands and plantations at an altitude of above sea level.[2]
It reached up to in total length, with about half being the tail. Adult males have a distinct soft and blade-like horn on the nose where the tip is movable; females lack a horn. Its colours are very variable, but typically shades of brown, grey, green or rusty-red, and especially during the mating season may have some blue patches.[2]
The sharp-nosed chameleon was scientifically described in 1988.
