Acacia chamaeleon is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is an openly crowned, sparingly-branched, glabrous shrub with narrowly linear to thread-like or lance-shaped phyllodes with the narrower end towards the base, spherical heads of more or less golden yellow flowers, and linear, firmly papery to thinly leathery pods.
This species of wattle is found in clay or loam in shrubland on undulating plains, flats and rises in the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains and Mallee bioregions of south-western Western Australia.
