Alright I know I came in a little late on this conversation but as far as having a "studbook" is concerned having everyone that gets Uroplatus in the hobby and breeding them,etc would be hard to keep track of and die out quick as someone stated before. However, what if there was a group of breeders that started a group called something like "International Uroplatus Breeders Association/society" or something along those lines and only got animals from those within the group,etc. Of course it might only be worthwhile if the group was a good size with more then 5 or even more then 10 members in it. Of course you know eventually someone would want a animal from outside the group to keep bloodlines good and all and that would be kept track of in some way. A map or chart could be devised of who has what and were it came from. It's used often were professional studbooks are concerned to figure out were animals should go and who they breed with to keep the bloodlines going.
