Bibliomania!

I just received a beautifully done book on Ecuadorian frogs:

Ron, Santiago, Martin Bustamante, Luis Coloma and Belen Mena. 2009. Sapos: Ecuador Sapodiverso. Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Ecuador, Quito, 256 p. A very well done photographic book illustrating the diversity of Ecuador's frogs. $69.95

In addition to this book, today's list contains a number of interesting pubications.

Please let me know if you would like anything from this list.
