The Common Amphibians and Reptiles of Penang Island
---
Ibrahim Jaafar & Others
The casual visitor to the built up areas of George Town may be surprised that Penang island merits a book on herpetofauna, i.e. amphibians and reptiles. In fact the capital city is unrepresentative of most of the island, which is given over to farm land and forests where most of the 26 species of amphibians and 70 species of reptiles, included in this book, live. Each species is described by the date when it was first recorded by scientists, its scientific, English and Malay names, a colour photograph, a text description, notes on ecology and distribution both on the island and elsewhere in the region. New Paperback. First Edition. 116 pages with a bibliography and an index of species.
