摘要：
A new species, Chamaeleo harennae, is described from forested sites in the Bale Mountains of Ethiopia. In the form and relative prominence of crests on the posterior region of the head, it closely resembles C. affinis Ruppell 1845, but differs most conspicuously from this species in the possession of an exceptionally well developed gular crest, similar to that found in C. hoehnelii Steindachner 1891 and C. rudis Boulenger 1906.
