The book is realy detailed and helpful to known anatomy and biology tadpoles. Realy great!!!!
This book does a great job at describing and showing anuran tadpoles and key identification features. I only wish that it covered all frogs and toads including Hylidae, Bufonidae, etc. This book is very useful in identifying the Ranids but can't help with the other species. It is a worthwhile book to add to your library or office collection.
Great Book for Herpetologists
Knowledge of the often under-studied and overlooked larval stage of the frog- the tadpole- is reviewed excelently in this book. Chapters cover areas from anatomy to ecology.Couldn't recommend this book enough for the herpetologist!
Anuran Tadpoles
This volume provides the "only" comprehensive review of larval anuran biology and behavior that I am aware of. The authors obviously live, think and breath "tadpole". An extremely useful addition to any herpetologists library.
