Australia has a rich and diverse assemblage of reptiles with over 800 species. This book covers all of them and most are illustrated with an excellent colour photograph of the animal in its natural habitat. Each entry includes a distribution map, a description (with distinguishing features picked out in bold), habitat and range, information on subspecies and similar species, and conservation status. Extra photographs are used to show subspecies and sexual dimorphism.
