Hello everybody.
I'm happy to present the publication of the "Atlas des Amphibiens et Reptiles d'Aquitaine".

Complement of the "Guide des Amphibiens and Reptiles d'Aquitaine" released in 2010 (http://www.cistude.org/images/Documents/AtlasAR/GuideARAquitaine.pdf), this book includes observations made by nearly 1,500 contributors.
The great dynamic of the last four years has allowed to accumulate a large database, which now exceeds 60,000 contributions.
Knowledge on the distribution of species in the regionshowed a large increase and now this atlas presents a reliable and accurate overview of the actual distribution of the 47 species of amphibians and reptiles of Aquitaine .

You will also find in this book an approach on the biogeography of our species, an analysis of their conservation status and inventory of threats and causes regression .
In addition, the book offers some simple steps to protect the herps and updated taxonomy and conservation status , including the publication of the regional Red List .

Only in french... ;)

The book is now available through the association, do not hesitate to order ! The book is free, but we ask you to pay shipping (10 euros).

Looks like a very nice book! And 10€ is a really unbeatable offer. :D

Do I have to complete the "Bon de commande" and send it by mail or is it possible to order a copy by just using the contact form?
