This book shows a comprehensive picture of the reptiles, excluding
snakes, living in Europe, North Africa, Middle and Near East and Central
Asia. The bulks of this book are an annotated checklist and a
distributional atlas of about 500 species of lizards, crocodiles,
turtles and terrapins, and amphisbaenians, living in the Western
Palaearctic. Information on distribution, subspecies, chorotype and main
references are provided for each species, as well as 226 nice colour
maps showing the global distribution of the species on a grid of 1
degree. For each species map the bibliographic and original sources
(more than 850 sources are listed) are indicated. Other 83 additional
white and black maps show the distribution of all genera and main
species groups of Palaearctic reptiles. Beside the checklist and the
atlas, in some additional chapters the following arguments are treated:
Materials and Methods; Status of knowledge on the Palaearctic fauna;
Composition of the Western Palaearctic reptile fauna (including a
statement on biodiversity and species richness); Descriptive
biogeography (including a discussion on the Palaearctic Region
boundaries based on reptile distribution and the herpeto-geographic
sectors of the Western Palaearctic); Conservation status. A list of more
than 730 references quoted in the text and high quality colour plates
including photos of most of the supraspecific taxa living in the study
area completes the book.
