4.0 out of 5 stars Nice photographs but correct?, March 8, 2007
By 
This review is from: Amphibians of Central and Southern Africa (Comstock Books in Herpetology) (Hardcover)
This book looks very nice and the provided information is very helpful with determining the species. However, the first toad I met in Namibia, fits the description of Bufo gutturalis and the photograph of Bufo garmani. I think that these pictures are swapped. The second species I found is a tree frog with orange and black net-like pattern. With the pictures I cannot find it and my own photograph appears to be not enough to use the provided keys to the species. The third species I found is a small toad with a blinking green stripe in the middle of the back and this is exactly the same story.

Concluding: 192 very nice colour photographs and very clear and informative text for each species, but you need to have the animal in captivity (or dead) to use the keys.

This review is from: Amphibians of Central and Southern Africa (Comstock Books in Herpetology) (Hardcover)
Very nice book, but I would have expected the pictures to be next to the description of the animal.
