The past two decades have seen an enormous growth in interest about amphibians and an increased intensity of scientific research into their fascinating biology and continent-wide distribution. This atlas presents the spectacular diversity of North American amphibians in a geographic context. It covers all formally recognized amphibian species found in the United States and Canada, many of which are endangered or threatened with extinction. Illustrated with maps and photos, the species accounts provide current information about distribution, habitat, and conservation. Researchers, professional herpetologists, and anyone intrigued by amphibians will value North American Amphibians as a guide and reference.  AmphibiansNorth Americaamerican amphibians.american bullfrogs.amphibian species.amphibians.animals.biology.blind salamanders.canada.conservation.engaging.environmental.field guide.geographic context.habitat.illustrated.life sciences.maps.nature.north american amphibians.photography.photos.professional herpetologists.reference.science and math.science.scientific research.species distribution.spectacular diversity.united states.Amphibians597.8SCI008000NAT001000bisacshGreen David M151082Casper Gary S., edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGreen David M., edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLannoo Michael, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWeir Linda A., edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790708603321North American amphibians3707636UNINA
