Losos, Jonathan B. 2009. Lizards in an Evolutionary Tree: Ecology and Adaptive Radiation of Anoles. University of California Press, Berkeley, xx, 508 p. Clothbound with a dust-jacket. Adaptive radiation, which results when a single ancestral species gives rise to many descendants, each adapted to a different part of the environment, is possibly the single most important source of biological diversity in the living world. One of the best-studied examples involves Caribbean Anolis lizards. With about 400 species, Anolis has played an important role in the development of ecological theory and has become a model system exemplifying the integration of ecological, evolutionary, and behavioral studies to understand evolutionary diversification. This major work, written by one of the best-known investigators of Anolis, reviews and synthesizes an immense literature. Jonathan B. Losos illustrates how different scientific approaches to the questions of adaptation and diversification can be integrated and examines evolutionary and ecological questions of interest to a broad range of biologists. $75.00

McCranie, James R., Larry David Wilson and Gunther Koehler. 2005. Amphibians & Reptiles of the Bay Islands and Cayos Cochinos, Honduras. Bibliomania, Salt Lake City, xiv, 210 p. The authors of this authoritative book about the herpetofauna of the Honduran Bay Islands have produced much more than a simple guide. They not only illustrate and describe the 55 species of amphibians and reptiles, the provide user-friendly keys and detailed descriptions of the islands and their rapidly changing habitats. In addition, they present a thoughtful analysis of the forces, few of them positive, that affect the conservation status of the islands’ unique populations of amphibians and reptiles, many of which are endemic.—Robert Powell.

Facsimile reprint with hand-colored plates. Limited to 100 signed & numbered copies. This special facsimile has been painstakingly produced to equal the original in quality and presentation. Each of the seven plates have been individually hand-colored by Lara Carroll. Plate seven was also printed by hand lithography.

In 1832, Prince Maximilian and his artist, Carl Bodmer embarked on an expedition through North America to compare the Indians and natural history to those of South America which the prince had explored earlier. Their Journey would take them deep into the interior of North America, to Fort McKenzie, near present-day Great Falls, Montana. After returning to Europe in 1834, Prince Maxmilian spent the rest of his life studying his collections. This book is his major contribution to North American herpetology and is illustrated with seven beautifully handcolored plates of turtles and salamanders by Carl Bodmer. $950.00
