About This Book

This catalog documents all holotypes and paratypes known in the university herpetological collection as of April 15, 1962, listing each taxon under the original combination with cross-references to current names and publication citations. Specimens are arranged alphabetically by genus and species within orders, and the authors note corrections to original citations, catalogue numbers, and localities where errors were found. Only specimens explicitly designated as paratypes by the original describer are included. The compilation enumerates 125 species and subspecies across amphibian and reptile orders and highlights provenance details and collector information for type material.
