Calumma

Four species groups are recognised within the genus Calumma (originally proposed by Glaw & Vences in 1994), some of which may be only phenetic, while others are phylogenetically supported: ===Calumma furcifer species group=== Contents: Calumma furcifer, C. gastrotaenia, C. marojezense, C. guillaumeti, C. andringitraense, C. glawi, C. vencesi Species characterised by typically green body colouration, sleek body form, and generally no occipital lobes (flaps of skin posterior to the head; present only in C. glawi) and no rostral appendage (present only in males of C. furcifer). These taxa are collectively referred to as the C. guibei species complex. ===Calumma parsonii species group=== Contents: Calumma globifer, C. ambreense, C. oshaughnessyi, C. parsonii, C. capuroni Species characterised by large body size, males with paired rostral appendages, and some species with small occipital lobes. ==Species==
