The seller didn't know? Not good if you plan to use him to breed. There are so many crosses out there. As a pet, he's quite beautiful and it doesn't really matter.

I'm not up on all the panther morphs, but this looks sort of Ambanja-Ambilobe to me.

To be honest, in my opinion, there is no way it is a pure bred Nosy Be. Don't be fooled, Reptile Depot might not really have any idea about its true locale as they don't breed their own chameleons but purchase from other breeders and then sell imports. Who knows how truthful or knowledgeable about pardalis locales the true breeder is. It looks like it has Nosy Be in it but it doesn't look like it is a pure Nosy Be. Its very likely that the male may have been a Nosy Be but the female was not. The colorationand paterning of the head, dorsum and lateral stripes just aren't right. Here is a photo of a male F. pardalis I photographed on Nosy Be to give you an idea of what a true Nosy Be is: Male Nosy Be
