This third edition, now fully revised and updated by two of Dr. Zug's colleagues, provides
herpetology students and amateur reptile and amphibian keepers with the latest taxonomy and
species developments from around the world. Herpetology is a rapidly evolving field , which
has contributed to new discoveries in many conceptual areas of biology. The authors build on
this progress by updating all chapters with new literature, graphics, and discussions-many of
which have changed our thinking.

With a new emphasis placed on conservation issues,Herpetology continues to broaden the global
coverage from earlier editions, recognising the burgeoning reptile and amphibian research
programs and the plight of many species in all countries and all biomes.

New information on the remarkable advances in behavioral, physiological, and phylo-geographical
data provide students with the current research they need to advance their education and better
sprepare their future in herpetology.
