Description
Book SynopsisThe most comprehensive taxonomy of the anuran fauna gathered since Robert H. Mount’s 1975 volume on the reptiles and amphibians of Alabama. This richly illustrated guide provides an up-to-date summary of the taxonomy and life history of both native frogs and toads and those introduced to the state.
Trade Review“It has been over forty years since the previous scientific treatment of these animals in the state was published, Mount’s 1975 T
he Reptiles and Amphibians of Alabama. Numerous significant changes or advancements of knowledge in species distribution, conservation status, taxonomy, and natural history of Alabama herpetofauna have taken place since then, certainly enough to warrant the series of books that started with
Turtles of Alabama and the more recently released
Lizards and Snakes of Alabama. I have enjoyed both of those books and know they have been well received by others I’ve interacted with, and I have no doubt
Frogs and Toads of Alabama will be too."—John B. Jensen, coeditor of
Amphibians and Reptiles of Georgia
