On Saturday, 10 June 2023, there will be a live discussion on YouTube with the herpetologist Mark D. Scherz and Bill Strand from the Chameleon Academy in the USA. The topic will be the Malagasy chameleon Calumma brevicorne and its numerous relatives, some of which are extremely similar in appearance. Taxonomically, many chameleons of the brevicorne clade are not yet classifiable – possibly some undescribed new species are hiding among them? There will be an opportunity to ask questions about the topic live in the chat throughout the hour. This should be a very exciting talk round!

For those who make up their minds at short notice, there is a spontaneous chance to attend a particularly beautiful lecture tomorrow, Saturday, 08 October 2022. Together with Jutta Dwinger, AG member Lars Dwinger will give a lecture full of pictures, which will be broadcast online via live stream. This is an opportunity for all those who prefer to watch lectures from the comfort of their couch or for whom the journey to Lower Saxony is simply too far. Language will be German.

This year, the two Dwingers travelled to the north of Madagascar, which is known for its extreme biodiversity. The journey begins in the Marojejy National Park, which stretches across the gorges and steep slopes of the mountain range of the same name. There you can see exceptionally rarely photographed chameleons, but also a great variety of frogs, snakes and geckos. Afterwards, the journey led via the east coast towns of Sambava and Vohémar to the dry forest of Daraina. The next stop was the world-famous Tsingys in Ankarana National Park. Even in these two dry forests, there is a lot of small and big life. The final stop was camping in the middle of a chameleon paradise: The Amber Mountain in the far north of Madagascar. Between tiny earth chameleons that just fit on the tip of a finger and the gentle giants of the rainforest, the two Hamburgers encounter many fascinating creatures on this trip.
