EX Question 5 Rieppeleon brevicaudatus Rieppeleon kerstenii Seychellean tiger chameleon Kinyongia Chamaeleo 38.4 Mya Fil The tree to the right depicts the relationships among several species of chameleons (each lineage is a distinct species). The lineages are color-coded to indicate where the species are found geographically. Rhampholeon Nadzikambia Calumma 1 The scale on the bottom indicates the estimated timing of nodes (Mya = million yrs ago). Trioceros Furcifer Calumma 2 Madagascar and Seychelles are islands off the West coast of Africa with high rates of endemism.
