Abstract     
VARIOUS species of Pisces, Amphibia and Reptilia exhibit reversible colour change according to lighting conditions. According to Parker, Chelonia is the only order of Reptilia from which no example of this activity has been described. It is the purpose of this communication to record colour change in a tortoise (Chelodina longicollis).
