Hello,
I have decided to part with some very nice books. I have enjoyed these very much over the years and read them cover to cover, but now my interests lie elsewhere. If you are wanting to start or really flesh-out a comprehensive herpetological library, this is a good chance. These prices are fair and cover all shipping costs and my time. will accept offers on multiple books!
make me an offer for all the books for for different combinations
Shoot me a pm if you are interested or have questions

This is a collection of magazines that goes back to the early '90s. Every issue, beggining with the black and white magazine up through this years issues. many are full color. The magazine deals with more than just Iguana species. Articles on conservation, herpetology, research, gila monsters, anacondas, gharial, geckos and scientific papers and biographical pieces are in ever issue. I will also include a new Hardcover copy of the IRCF's new book about Blue Iguanas and their natural history/ecology.

Even if you don't keep ball pythons there is something to be learned in this book and the photos alone are wortht he price. I will indlude a bonus book on snakes if you buy this.

"Snakes: Ecology and Conservation is an important and excellent book. The choice of topics is timely and each chapter offers something novel."-Harry W. Greene, Cornell University, author of Snakes: The Evolution of Mystery in Nature.

$50 Two Books together:
"Rattler!" by Chris Mattison - rare out of print hardcover. 144pages
excellent introduction to the 30 species of rattlesnakes. Starting with a chapter of basic information on the snakes themselves, which answers such basic questions as how the rattle is formed and how the snakes inject their venoms, the text moves on to cover the general distribution and habitats of rattlesnakes, their origins and evolution, and their interactions with humans. The last chapter covers each rattlesnake species, with capsule descriptions, range maps, habitat, and information on venom. What makes this book a valuable acquisition are the terrific color photographs of the snakes, particularly those in the species descriptions

$45 Boas and pythons of the world & Venomous snakes of the world, 2 hard covers by Mark O'shea
