WINNER OF THE WHITLEY AWARDS BEST FIELD GUIDE OF THE YEAR

Packed with extraordinary photographs, this ground-breaking book represents the first accessible field guide to the reptiles and amphibians of New Zealand, covering all 123 species.

From the ancient Tuatara to the world’s largest assemblage of long-lived and live-bearing lizards, every species account includes an accurate distribution map and information on appearance, habitat, similar species and natural history. This definitive guide also features a comprehensive introduction to the evolution, conservation, ecosystems and geographic history of these animals.

This is the ultimate photographic field guide to New Zealand’s herpetofauna, and is a gateway into the world of these fascinating tetrapods for amateur and expert herpetologists alike.
