About the book: 
815 species of amphibian have been described on the African continent – 788 frogs, 23 caecilians and four salamanders.  Field Guide to the Frogs & other Amphibians of Africa  is the first guide ever to cover all these species.
 
The book features a brief introduction with tips for handling and identifying amphibians. A useful illustrated guide to each family group serves as a first step towards species ID. Species accounts describe physical features, distribution, habitat, biology, advertisement calls and conservation status, and are supported by colour photographs and up-to-date distribution maps. 
 
Field Guide to the Frogs & Other Amphibians of Africa  will prove invaluable to nature lovers, tour guides, students and scientists.
