Abstract
Female veiled chameleons, Chameleo calyptratus, have a high fecundity and fast maturation, which makes them a suitable model species for squamate reproduction.

Four stages of follicular development could be distinguished by imaging diagnostics and were confirmed by histology: previtellogenesis, vitellogenesis, gravidity and atresia. Using a linear ultrasound t
