42. Amphibians Information and photos of the 6 species of salamanders and 13 frogs in Hiroshima, Japan. http://www3.ocn.ne.jp/~herpsgh/amphibians.html

Amphibians of Hiroshima There are 19 species of amphibians in Hiroshima Prefecture. They are 6 species of salamanders and 13 frogs. Hynobiid salamanders are very secretive, so they are hardly known to people. They inhabit forests and damp ground around breeding sites and are found only during their breeding season. The Japanese giant salamander, Andrias japonicus is known to people as a Japanese special tresure. This species inhabits a cool and clear stream, and spend their entire lives underwater. Though, they sometime go out from the water when they climb over a small dam in their breeding season or a river rises. Now, their habitats are gotten worse by river improvement. In the country side, all the kids play catching frogs or tadpoles. They are familier for kids, sing the frog's song "the chorus of frogs" at elementary school. Most frogs inhabit in the rice fields. The cost of Hiroshima, Rana japonica and R. ornativentris start of their breeding in January. Rhacophorus schlegelii calls in early spring. After water came into the rice fields

Ancient Amphibians Discovered in Iowa The evolutionary relationships of early land-living amphibians and reptiles are not well known. The Iowa discovery will add significantly to an otherwise scanty worldwide fossil record. Illustration by Patricia J. Lohmann. Abundant Mississippian-age amphibian bone was discovered within this unusually shaped limestone and shale-filled depression exposed in a quarry in southeastern Iowa. Photo by Bob McKay. The bone bed occurs in the middle of a unique sequence of rocks which were deposited in a depression formed within the flat-lying limestones and shales of the upper St. Louis Formation. The unusual dish-shaped configuration of the deposit led to closer inspection and to discovery of the fossils. The basal half of the deposit consists of angular-to-rounded blocks and boulders of St. Louis limestone in a shale matrix containing scattered bone. Overlying this is the bone bed, a semi-continuous to lenticular, bone-rich limestone conglomerate with thin interlayered shales, also rich in bone. Above the bone bed is a sequence of bedded limestones and minor shales containing fish remains, ostracodes and snails, but lacking fossils suggestive of normal marine conditions. At the edge of the depression, these limestones overlap and rest on top of the St. Louis and represent the top of the rock sequence in the quarry. Pleistocene glacial till overlies the rock in the quarry. Rare fossils of early land-dwelling vertebrates found in Keokuk County rank high among North American fossil discoveries. This 340-million-year-old amphibian skull (approx. 9" x 7 1/2") shows exceptional preservation.

44. CHECKLIST OF FLORIDA AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES A complete list of the species and subspecies of amphibians and reptiles in theState of Florida is provided, together with their common names and scientific http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/natsci/herpetology/FL-GUIDE/Flaherps.htm

Florida Museum of Natural History's Checklist of Florida Amphibians and Reptiles An on-line fieldguide to Florida's amphibian and reptile fauna is under construction. When complete, it will allow the user to identify these animals in the field; will provide color photographs and line drawings of the species; will describe their geographic distribution, particularly in Florida; and furnish notes on their ecology and behavior. The FLMNH's 'Online Guide to the Snakes of Florida' and 'Guide to the Venomous Snakes of Florida' already are on-line. Please watch these pages for the appearance of the full fieldguide to Florida's amphibians and reptiles. In the meantime, a simple checklist of the amphibians and reptiles known to occur in Florida is being provided. In the compilation that follows, the species are listed alphabetically by scientific name, first by genus, then by species and subspecies. Amateur and professional herpetologists familiar with amphibian and reptile systematics undoubtedly would prefer to have the species grouped together under the appropriate families, but the general public should find the alphabetical list easier to use until the fieldguide goes on-line. Exotic (non-native) species which have been introduced (escaped or were released) and now have breeding populations in Florida are noted. The frequency with which introductions are occurring makes any list of Florida herps out of date almost as soon as it is compiled. That undoubtedly is the case with the list that follows.

A mphibians and reptiles are important, but often overlooked, components of many southeastern ecosystems. Recently, many amphibian and reptile populations have experienced drastic declines, thus increasing the need for studies of their biology and conservation. Many amphibians and reptiles may be especially susceptible to environmental degradation, thus making them potentially important indicators of overall environmental health. The purpose of this web site is to foster an appreciation of amphibians and reptiles and to provide information regarding their biology and conservation, focusing on North Carolina. On this web site, you will find information on every species of amphibian and reptile found in North Carolina, information on conservation efforts in North Carolina, and interesting amphibian and reptile facts and myths. Additionally, we have included a section designed "just for kids." This web site was developed as a class project by students in the Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Class at Davidson College during the Spring of 1999.

GUIDELINES FOR USE OF LIVE AMPHIBIANS AND REPTILES IN FIELD RESEARCH compiled by American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists (ASIH) The Herpetologists' League (HL) Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles (SSAR) [available only online] Introduction Consistent with our long standing interests in conservation, education, research and the general well-being of amphibians and reptiles, the ASIH, HL and SSAR support the following guidelines and principles for scientists conducting field research on these animals. As professional biologists specializing in herpetology and concerned with the welfare of these animals, we recognize that guidelines for the laboratory care and use of domesticated stocks of amphibians and reptiles are frequently impossible to apply without endangering the well-being of wild-caught animals. Such guidelines may also preclude techniques or types of investigations known to have minimal adverse effects on individuals or populations (1, 20), and which are necessary for the acquisition of new knowledge. The humane treatment of wild vertebrates in field research is both an ethical and a scientific necessity. Traumatized animals may exhibit abnormal physiological, behavioral and ecological responses that defeat the purposes of the investigation (21, 25). It is of particular importance that animals which are captured and marked be returned to the wild without impairment to resuming their normal activities, and that habitats essential for these activities not be rendered unsuitable in the course of capture efforts.

60. Untitled Collaborative Thematic Unit Theme Reptiles and amphibians by Mike Seagleand John Geanangel. Grade Level Upper Primary (2nd and 3rd). http://www.libsci.sc.edu/miller/Reptiles.htm

Collaborative Thematic Unit Theme: Reptiles and Amphibians by Mike Seagle and John Geanangel Grade Level Upper Primary (2nd and 3rd) The theme of this unit, "Reptiles and Amphibians," is especially appropriate for children of this level because they are fascinated with animals and are often highly motivated to explore their immediate environment. Focus: The overall purpose of this interdisciplinary, thematic unit of study is to help students learn more about the distinct characteristics of reptiles and amphibians, including an emphasis on the metamorphosis and development of amphibians. The students will accomplish this through becoming involved in a number of interdisciplinary lessons and activities. The length of this unit can be adjusted according to the specific needs of the classroom. The students will have experiences in caring for animals, and they will have opportunities to express themselves through creative work in art, writing, music, and movement activities. General Objectives On completion of this unit, the students will:
