    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have a few surplus volumes of Biology of the Reptilia by Carl Gans. The series was completed this year by SSAR with volumes 20 and 21. For those of you unfamiliar with the seris,
here is a summary

This major series has, since its first volume in 1969, established itself as a major contribution to herpetology and to vertebrate biology as a whole. A few of the first 18 volumes published by Academic Press and Branta Books are still available. New titles from volume 19 onwards will now be published by the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles.

It has taken me close to 7 years to complete the whole series, which are mostly out of print at this point. Listed below are out of print surplus copies at very reasonable prices
Vol. 1 $150 Morphology A- origins of Reptiles
Vol. 2 $150 Morphology B- Eyes, ear, nose, Jacobson's organ
Vol. 3 $150 Morphology C- Blood biology and chemistry
Vol. 4 $190 Morphology D
Vol. 5 $190 Physiology A
Vol. 6 $190 Morphology E Digestive tract and urogenital tract
Vol. 7 $190..........SOLD
Vol. 8 $250 very hard to find volume Physiology B Venom evolution and venom gland biology
Vol. 9 $150 Neurology A SOLD pending payment
Vol.10 $150 Neurology B
Vol.12 $150 Physiology C Physiological ecology (Thermal regulation and hydration) Sold...

In the past, I have only seen the first 10 volumes offered as a set once. So this is a rare chance to aquire the first part of the series at one time. I can offer a price break for all of the texts (bought at once) to those interested.

Shipping is additional. Please contact me for more info

Thanks
Michael
