Guide and Reference to the Amphibians of Western North America (North of Mexico) and Hawaiiby Rd Bartlett
Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Veteran herpetologist and herpetoculturalist R. D. and biologist and
historian Patricia continue their series of regional guides to
reptiles and amphibians by looking east of the Mississippi and north
of the Rio Grande for the lesser known member of the herpetology
couple. There are about 130 species of frogs (anurans) and
salamanders (caudatans) in the region, some widely distributed and
others so narrow in their range that finding them could be difficult.
For many species, little or very little, or sometimes even nothing,
is known of the life history, and they hope that readers will get
tired enough of reading so that they will conduct some serious
research to amend it. Excellent color photographs and distribution
maps accompany text on abundance and range, habitat, size,
identifying features, voice, and how to distinguish from similar
species.
