Amphibians are one of the world’s most rapidly declining fauna groups. In an era of devastating climate change, habitat destruction and irreplaceable loss of biological diversity, it has never been more important to have effective resources for identifying and managing wildlife.

Tapping into the deep knowledge of the best frog experts in south-eastern Australia, Frogs of Victoria not only provides the tools to identify Victorian frogs – including keys, photographs, and comparative information on similar species – it also presents detailed information on their biology, habitats, status, and threats. Importantly, the authors also detail the urgent actions required to prevent further loss of amphibian diversity in Victoria.

Including stunning images from some of Australia’s finest wildlife photographers, Frogs of Victoria is an authoritative resource for ecologists, land managers, conservationists and all who are fascinated by frogs.

Features:
  • Covers the 38 frog species and subspecies native to Victoria, as well as 1 introduced frog species and 1 introduced newt species
  • Assists readers to identify Victorian frogs, with dichotomous keys and photographs showing major identification features
  • Each species profile is accompanied by color photographs, a distribution map, distinguishing features, and similar species with details of differentiation
  • Comprehensive species profiles also provide notes on conservation status, biology and breeding, calls and habitats
  • Includes information on threats to Victorian frogs, conservation research, and recovery programs

Recenzijos

Including stunning images from some of Australia's finest wildlife photographers, Frogs of Victoria is an authoritative resource for ecologists, land managers, conservationists and all who are fascinated by frogs."(Frogcall 185)

"The authors not only provide thorough descriptions of adults, mostly showing adult dorsal and ventral views, but also give a good summary of species' biology, including some egg and tadpole photos. The distribution mapsfor each species are very clear, showing where each frog occurs in red grid squares overlain on the green map. Distribution text provides both the species full Australian distribution as well as where it occurs in Victoria. So, should you add this book to your amphibian library? Absolutely without a doubt, I highly recommend it!" - Marion Anstis (FrogCall 188)

"This comprehensive and informative guide to every species of frog in Victoria, is the definitive reference guide for nature enthusiasts and professionals alike." - Ray Draper (Growing Australian 266)
