Golden Tortoise Beetle: For example, a golden tortoise beetle is usually bright gold. But it can change to a dull orange-brown with dark spots. The darker colors make the beetle look like a ladybug. Many birds find beetles very tasty. But they don’t like to eat ladybugs. They may leave a beetle alone if it looks like its darker cousin. In this case, changing color helps the beetle hide from predators, or animals that might eat it.
Bark Spider: This animal changes color to become a better predator. It can turn brown, gray, green, or yellow. These colors let the spider blend in with trees, stones, and leaves as it waits for insects. Often the insects do not see their predator until it’s too late. And so they become the spider’s next snack!
Flounder: Some sea creatures also use color to camouflage themselves. The flounder takes on dull, spotted coloring to blend in with the rocky seafloor. Then it just lies there and waits for tasty animals to swim by. Other times the flounder turns an almost see-through color to avoid its own predators when swimming near the water’s surface.
google it for more.

If you’re in a dark room, you can’t see a black person. I would consider that camouflage.

The cuttle fish changes.
Also, some species of anemones utilizes their nematocysts to change colors, but which one it is escapes me. It might be Condylactus Gigantea, but don’t quote me on that one.
