How to recognise it

Two adjacent corners show yellow on top. Hold them on the right: the left corners' yellow faces front and back.

Its inverse is another case

Do the Chameleon algorithm backwards, F R' F' r U R U' r', and you are solving Bowtie.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles Chameleon that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise Chameleon and not Bowtie.
