It was first described by Mocquard in 1900: 345, and has been described numerous times since then, most recently by Townsend et al. in 2009. It is affected by the collection of charcoal, forest fires, and the grazing of cattle. Distribution and habitatThe toothed leaf chameleon is endemic to northwestern Madagascar, and its type locality is Sberbieville.[1] It has been confirmed to be found at Andasibe, Mandraka, and Angavo-Anjozorobe. At the highest, the species can be found at {{convert|200|m|ft|abbr=on}} above sea level. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has classed B. dentata as an endangered species on their IUCN Red List. It is listed as endangered because it is known only from the Ankarafantsika area, which covers {{convert|1300|sqkm|sqmi|abbr=on}}, although it could be found over an area of {{convert|2700|sqkm|sqmi|abbr=on}} at the highest. The habitat of Brookesia dentata is continuing to decline due to charcoal collection, fires, and cattle.[2] The population of Brookesia dentata is currently decreasing like the habitat.[2] It is currently protected under the Madagascar law, and collection of the species is permitted with permission to do so.[2] TaxonomyBrookesia dentata was initially described by Mocquard in 1900: 345, and has later been described many times: Werner (1911: 43), Mertens (1966: 2), Brygoo (1978: 25), Glaw and Vences (1994: 235), Klaver and Böhme (1997), Necas (1999: 277), and most recently Townsend et al. (2009).[3] It is commonly known as the toothed leaf chameleon.[1][4]References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://eol.org/pages/1057242/overview |title=Toothed Leaf Chameleon - Brookesia dentata - Overview - Encyclopedia of Life |publisher=Eol.org |date= |accessdate=2012-11-12}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q2926137}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/172808/0 |title=Brookesia dentata |publisher=Iucnredlist.org |date= |accessdate=2012-11-12}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://reptile-database.reptarium.cz/species?genus=Brookesia&species=dentata |title=Brookesia dentata | The Reptile Database |publisher=Reptile-database.reptarium.cz |date=2010-02-21 |accessdate=2012-11-12}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://zipcodezoo.com/Animals/B/Brookesia_dentata/ |title=Brookesia dentata (Toothed Leaf Chameleon) |publisher=Zipcodezoo.com |date= |accessdate=2012-11-12}} 2 : Reptiles described in 1900|Brookesia |
