"…an easy to use, resourceful guide for anyone working with reptiles, either professionally or as a hobbyist…a valuable reference tool, especially for identification of flies and ticks. A must for anyone working with reptiles." -- Diane Callaway, Animal Keepers' Forum, Vol. 28, No. 1, 2001

"I opened this book wondering if it is really needed. The wealth of genera and species covered and the comprehensive data quickly convinced me that it is. It's nicely produced and by today's standards is inexpensive. Authors and publishers are to be congratulated." -- Roger Avery, School of Biological Sciences, Bristol University, Parasitology, (2001), 122, 218.
