Building on the success of its popular predecessor, this second edition presents new findings on the species that are important environmental indicators. It covers nearly twice as many topics, including recent developments in the ecotoxicology of amphibians and reptiles, the current status of these animals, and intrinsic factors that affect their susceptibility to contaminants. The book also includes information on specific groups of contaminants and their effects and body burdens in herpetafauna, how contaminants interact with other ecological factors, and concerns for the future.
