A chameleon

The chameleon is a small lizard native to Earth.

When Spock tried to match the sound of the whale probe to the sound of an Earth animal aboard the Klingon Bird-of-Prey HMS Bounty, a chameleon was one of the animals shown. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)

The scientific name for the chameleon was shown as Plethodon dunni, which is the scientific name of Dunn's salamander. We can assume that the computer on the HMS Bounty was incorrect.

Doctor Beverly Crusher compared the Tarchannen III species to a chameleon as the skin of the lifeform has mimetic qualities. (TNG: "Identity Crisis")
