The reptiles and amphibians of the Dutch Caribbean : St Eustatius, Saba, and St Maarten (Hardback)

The first in a series of guides to the natural environments of St. Eustatius (Statia), Saba and St. Maarten, this book describes the reptiles and amphibians of these islands. It also gives the reader an overview of the geological and geographical natural history of the islands, an introduction to the herpetofauna of the region and a survey of relevant conservation issues. The intent of the guides is to foster an appreciation of the islands' fragile natural resources and to enhance awareness of conservation issues that continue to be affected by development.
