The Amphibians and Reptiles of Alberta

By Anthony P. Russell and Aaron M. Bauer

Book Overview

Amphibians and reptiles (herpetofauna) are a significant but much-neglected component of the natural economy of the province of Alberta. This second edition, which continues as both a field guide and a natural history, builds on the strengths of the first, with a richly illustrated text and photographs of all species taken by renowned wildlife photographer Wayne Lynch.

The first edition of The Reptiles and Amphibians of Alberta received an award from the Book Publishers Association of Alberta and was also recognized by the Emerald Awards for Environmental Excellence. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated. Nomenclature has been changed to reflect current thinking in the field. New photographs have been added, and maps and illustrations have been updated.
