How to recognise it

Two diagonal corners show yellow on top. Hold them at front left and back right: the front-right corner's yellow faces you.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 25 · Bowtie algorithm backwards, R' F' r U R U' r' F, and you are solving 24 · Chameleon.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 25 · Bowtie that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 25 · Bowtie and not 24 · Chameleon.
