>>Minima and perarmata are not exported anymore – pretty sure they are listed as Appendix I of CITES. Decaryi is still exported among a few other brookesia but the numbers are real low – around 100-200 specimens each so they usually get scooped up before they hit the classifieds.

B. perarmata is listed on Appendix I of CITES and can not be exported as a result. B. minima was not given an export quota and B. decaryi was given an export quota of zero so neither can be exported from Madagascar. The only four species with quotas are B. thieli (100 per year), B. therezieni (100 per year), B. stumpffi (200 per year) and B. superciliaris (200 per year). These quotas are split between the US, Europe, Asia, etc., and very few show up in the classifieds anymore.
