Today's list contains several unpublished reports and continues papers by authors whose name begins with 'O'. I also just received more copies of the new book:

Jones, Laurence L. C. and Robert E. Lovich (eds.) 2009. Lizards of the American Southwest: A Photographic Field GUide. Rio Nuevo Publishers, Tucson, 568 p. Paperback. Lizards of the American Southwest covers all 96 species found in California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Colorado and Texas west of the Pecos River. Learn where to find lizards and how to identify them. Includes detailed information on habitat, natural history, taxonomy, viewing tips, plus hundreds of photos, illustrations and maps. 77 experts provide the most comprehensive guide to lizards of the Southwest. $24.94

I also just received a couple of copies of an interesting coffee table book with photographs of snakes. The photographs are all taken from above and the snakes are on a black background in the shape of the open book so it looks like the snake(s) are laying inside the book. It does have information about each species photographed (name, distribution, habitat, etc.):

Mocafico, Guido. 2007. Serpens. Steidl, Göttingen, 264 p. Clothbound with a dust-jacket. This is an coffee table photography book with photographs of several species of snakes. The species information for the photographs are in English. $60.00

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