It was described in 1831 by John Edward Gray.

It can be found between {{convert|120|and|1925|m|ft}} above sea level and has been estimated to be found over an area of {{convert|467634|km2}}, and is ranked as Least Concern (LC).[1] The population of Furcifer lateralis is currently stable.[1]DescriptionBoth sexes of Furcifer lateralis can reach a maximum length of anything between {{convert|17|and|25|cm|in}}. The males are largely green and females are heavier-bodied and have a wider range of colours, including bands of white, yellow and orange. Both sexes have stripy throats and lips. They can change their colour depending on their mood and environmental factors and they usually start the day with a dark colour to enable them to warm up rapidly by exposing themselves to sunlight.[3] This species is one of the smallest "true" species of chameleon, and they are timid and shy.[4] ReproductionFurcifer lateralis adults mature at the age of three months. Females lay between eight and twenty-three eggs at one time, and can produce up to three clutches a year.
