Despite their abundance in many parts of North America, salamanders
have generally been neglected by all but a few specialists. In this
book-first published in 1943-Sherman C. Bishop discusses in a
lively but authoritative manner the 126 species and subspecies of
salamanders that are known to exist in the United States, Canada,
and Baja California.Group by group, Bishop describes salamanders in
accounts that give the common and technical names, type of
locality, range, habitat, size, anatomical characteristics, color,
breeding habits, and relationships-all in a uniform arrangement
that makes the handbook especially convenient for studying both
living animals and laboratory specimens. His brief introduction
surveys the relationships and general habits of salamanders and
gives information on collecting and preserving them. In his
foreword to the 1994 reprint edition, Edmund D. Brodie, Jr., a
specialist on salamanders, updates the taxonomy of the group.
