. Bonner zoologische Beiträge : Herausgeber: Zoologisches Forschungsinstitut und Museum Alexander Koenig, Bonn. Biology; Zoology. Species of the Chamaeleo cristatus group 461. Fig. 4: Distribution of C montium in Cameroon. Nos. 1 — 11 same as in Fig. 3. 12 — Dikume/Rumpi Hills, 13 — Bakossi, Nasuki/N of Tombel, 14 — Mt Kupe, 15 — Nyasoso/Mt Kupe, 16 — Nsoung/Manengouba Mts, 17 — Atolo/Mamfe District. For locality references see text. populations occurred then any divergence due to isolation might have been reduced again by genetic interchange. The singularity of the montane C. feae of Fernando Poo, however, ap- pears to indicate a more permanent isolation that was not influenced by eventual subsequent pluvial periods. In view of this and the morphological disparity between C. feae and C. mon- tium we consider C. feae and C. camerunensis valid species. Distribution: Apart from the type locahty (Bojongo, Mt Cameroon) has been recorded from the following localities (Figs 3, 4): Cameroon: Bonge (Sjöstedt 1897) ( = Mbonge at the Meme river, cf. Mertens 1938), Mapanja, Mt Cameroon (Sjöstedt 1897), north of Bonenza, 1100 m (Gartshore 1986), Barombi station (Werner, 1897), Victoria (= Limbe) (Tornier 1901), Mohko, Mt Cameroon (Mertens 1938), Buea, Mt Cameroon (Mertens 1938, Angel 1940), Klein Soppo, Mt Cameroon (Mertens 1938), Upper farm Buea, Mt Cameroon (Mertens 1938), Mosake, Ekona, Mt Cameroon (Mertens 1938), Mongonge, Mt Cameroon (Mertens 1938), Ndoungué, near Nkongsamba, Manengouba Mts (Monard, 1951), Nkong- samba (Perret & Mertens 1957, but see correction under 'specimens examined'), near Buea, 1100-1200 m (Eisentraut 1963, Joger 1982), Soppo, Mt Cameroon (Eisentraut 1963),.
