East Africa is home to a remarkable assemblage of reptiles, from
crocodiles and chameleons to turtles and tortoises, lizards,
worm-lizards, and a stunning array of snakes. The region is a true
herpetological hot-spot.
This fully revised edition of the classic field guide to the region's
reptiles explores the full diversity of these animals. With updated
text, detailed maps and more than 600 new photographs, this book
includes every one of the 500 or so species in the region. All are
described and mapped, with virtually every species accompanied by at
least one colour photograph.
Comprehensive and definitive, Field Guide to East African Reptiles is
an essential tool for all naturalists, conservationists, educators,
field workers, medical personnel and students in the region.
