Following the historical precedent of Peters (1964), a new updated $IDictionary of Herpetology$I will provide a comprehensive, single-volume dictionary, with selected cross-referenced entries to clarify the many technical terms and concepts that pertain to herpetology.
The $IDictionary$I will provide a complete collection of words that are central to understanding the biology of amphibians and reptiles, offering concise and easy-to-use readable definitions in an A-to-Z format. This reference is essential for students, professionals, breeders, or anyone who is interested in herpetology and its many interdisciplinary connections. The new $IDictionary$I will emphasize terminology related to anatomy, physiology, systematics, evolution, and
other disciplines, including newly emerged fields that are relevant to the study of amphibians and reptiles. |
