Reptiles of Central America, Kohler ?

Post by J-Miz »

Just wondering if anybody has this bought and has any thoughts on it. It seems quite expensive, and I can't find any previews/sample pages anywhere on the net. Any good?

It includes good keys and photos for almost all of the reptiles so can be very helpful for IDing, but there is otherwise very little writing for most species.

For the $80 it costs it is well worth it.

If you are looking for information specific to Costa Rica you may be better off spending your money on another book specific to that country but for the other countries in Central America this book should at least cover all of the species you would come across.

I assume you are asking about the second edition which costs more than $100? I can't help with that, but I have a few copies of the first edition left - It is about 20 pages shorter. Right now they are on sale for $45.00

Thanks for this link. I have had that book on my wish list for years now. Just haven't found an affordable copy.
