This first volume of the TERRALOG series, designed to cover all reptile and amphibians species and subspecies, shows for the first time all recognized, and even many yet undescribed, turtle and tortoise species or subspecies inhabiting Africa, Europe and the Middle East. Whereever possible, not just a single specimen is shown, in addition, sexual, dimorphism, carapace and plastron patterns, pictures of mating, oviposition, hatching and, of course, typical habitats are presented. With each species you will find a description for captive husbandry. This TERRALOG provides a unique photographic reference for scientists, as well for hobbyists, and a fascinating synopsis of the beauty of turtles and tortoises. Text in English and German. 96 Pages The pictorial guide counts over 250 full colour photos which all carry the almost self explaining TERRALOG symbols |
