Kurzbeschreibung
With its varied topography of coast, mountains, and desert, the San Diego region, considered one of the world's biodiversity hotspots, boasts a rich variety of amphibians and reptiles - from the arboreal salamander to the green sea turtle to the secretive San Diego banded gecko and the red diamond rattlesnake. More than a field guide, this up-to-date, authoritative, conservation-oriented book is the first comprehensive resource on the herpetofauna of the region, which is unfortunately also known for its high number of endangered species. Jeffrey M. Lemm gives information on identification, habitats, biology, and the conservation status of all 88 amphibian and reptile species found in the San Diego region. Many of these animals can also be found in a wide area of Southern California and Northern Baja California, making this valuable guide useful for a wide geographic area and a must-have for outdoor enthusiasts, nature-lovers, and professionals alike. This book includes a special venom section written by Sean Bush of Animal Planet's 'Venom ER'; 160 color photographs that illustrate the major habitats and all 88 amphibians and reptiles found in the region; 70 range maps that pinpoint the locations of each subspecies; a new, easy-to-use taxonomic key by renowned herpetologist Jay Savage as well as line drawings of tadpoles and amphibian egg masses that help make species identification simple.

If you really want to know what amphibians and reptiles live in the San diego area forget all other field guides and pick this one up. At under $20.00 for the soft cover it is really a great value. Of course the handsome hardcover edition is a must for an real reptile enthusiasts library. If you are a hard core reptile enthusiast or an amateur just getting into it you need this book. If you do not like reptiles but live in the area it is a great resource to have. Of course if you love wildlife and hike southern California, I don't need to tell you that you need to own this book. Five Solid Stars!!!
