Depending on the age and location, it could be nothing to worry about. Young leos tend to have visable organs, and a black/green spot could be the gallbladder or speen. It would be close to where the ribs end.

I read in a book that that could be a skin infection, if your substrate is too dirty. I hope it isn't! I recommend taking your leo to a vet right away. Or, you could provide it with a clean substrate, then apply Betatine or an antibiotic cream on the area. But I would wait until I knew what it is, first. Hope this helps!
