''Chamaeleoaspis'' is a
genus of tiny
trilobites found in Early to Middle
Eifelian marine strata of
Africa and
Europe. The two species look very similar to the trilobites of the related genera ''
Cyphaspis'' and ''
Otarionella'', in which the species were originally, successively classified in. Fossils of the older species, ''C. lkomalii'', are found in a locality at the southern end of the Maider Basin, in the Anti-Atlas Mountains. Fossils of the
type species, ''C. chamaeleo'', are found in the Middle Eifelian-aged Ohle Formation in Endorf, Germany..
