Out now: A fieldguide to the reptiles and amphibians of Madagascar 3rd edition

[tanala]

..go and get it, it's a wonderful book. It is completely rewritten, and has more than 1500 color pictures (no more white/black ones) - second edition had around 500 (in colour). Nearly all known species of geckos are pictured (with some exceptions) in excellent quality, e.g it features pictures of Uroplatus alluaudi, malahelo, Paragehyra spp., Matoatoa, undescribed Paroedura, Microscalabotes and so on.

I am busy reading another great book on Madagascar - The Natural History of Madagascar available from nhbs books. Its a massive book and some of it is heavy reading but it is extremely interesting.
I might look up the book you have mentioned too.

I just got a copy of the new field guide two weeks ago.
It's really a great book. Much better than the 2nd edition, which was already very much out of date.

where do you get it? Is there a site in English you can buy it from?

 

[danscantle]

Has the key to Lygodactylus (and Microscalabotes/Millotisaurus) improved?

 

[tanala]

there's no determination key. But pictures on most species (good photos)

Hi!
You can find the book here:
Framepage [ English Version ]

Just click on the "International" under ALL TITLES - Terraristics (on the left side of the page), write "Glaw" (one of the authors) in the Key Word line and there it is.

Thanks a bunch but how do you see the price of the book in an American currency? Thanks :biggrin:

Ok someone help me out here. It says the book is 49,80 € and when I google that it says it is 49,80 € american currency = 70,6413 U.S. Dollars. That would be a lot of money:lol:. SO instead of the comma inside 49,80 € I added a decimal point and it came out to be $70.6413 U.S. Dollars. Is this how much the book is ruffly.
Thanks for you help

Yea, Europeans use a comma where we use a decimal. $70 is the correct conversion.
