Distribution of the local form Nosy Mangabe:
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/h4>\n

Nosy Mangabe (translated as “very beautiful island”) is an island with a size of 5,2 km\u00b2 that is situated a few kilometers southeast of Maroantsetra in Antongil Bay. You can reach it from Maroantsetra by boat in less than half an hour. The island is a special reserve for Aye-Ayes and part of Masoala national park, which is located vis-\u00e0-vis. It is completely covered by rainforest, but the west side has a nice golden-colored beach. Due to its remote location, only very few travelers visit this island, and we are some of the hand full of people that stay overnight there every year.<\/p>\n

Appearance of this local form:<\/h4>\n

As an island form, a very color-faithful local form has developed here, which shows only little variation in itself. The males are quasi “divided in two” on the whole body: They carry green colors on the body above the white lateral stripe, below the lateral stripe they are red. The bridge of the nose and helmet is green, and the throat pouch and eyelids are red. In adult males, the banding on the body, which other local forms show clearly, is only faintly visible or somewhat more obvious when excited.<\/p>\n

\r\n\t\t\nIn Madagascar, it is illegal to catch animals in protected areas or even inside national parks. If you find this local form outside Madagascar, you can be sure that the chameleon was either illegally exported or is not from this local form. In most cases, the offered animals are simply sold under the wrong local form name to raise the prices.\t<\/div>\r\n\t\n

Weight table<\/h4>\n

\"Gewichtstabelle<\/p>\n

Gewicht = weight in grams, Kopf-Rumpf-L\u00e4nge = snout-vent-length in cm, Weibchen = females, M\u00e4nnchen = males<\/p>\n

Since 2015, we have been measuring the weights of chameleons found by us in Madagascar, as far as the animals (and our scales) participate. In the long term, we aim to obtain an average weight in relation to snout-vent-length (measured from the tip of the nose to the cloaca) for each species from as many measurements as possible. It is important to know that all weights were measured towards the end of the rainy season (= best food supply), so these should be maximum weights on Madagascar<\/strong>. Triangular symbols in females mean not pregnant, round symbols mean pregnant. In Furcifer pardalis<\/em>, contrary to our original assumption, it has so far turned out that there are no serious differences in the ratio of SVL to weight between the individual local forms.<\/p>\n
