Terraria 20 - Diverse poison dart frogs

Pacific boas
Comb spiders of the genus Phoneutria

Contents:

Poison dart frogs are the most popular amphibians in terraristics, and they have been successfully kept and bred for decades. So you should know everything there is to know about the "jewels of the rainforest" by now? Far from it! These magnificent frogs always have tangible surprises and novelties in store for us, even with seemingly well-known species. In a spectacularly illustrated report, Frank Steinmann looks at the countless local forms of the golden tree frog, Dendrobates auratus, and reveals why many of the names circulating in terraristics for the colour forms are misleading. Ivonne Meuche has been researching strawberry frogs in Costa Rica for years and reports on the most interesting results that have not yet been scientifically published. And we also show photos of a beautiful, newly discovered and as yet undescribed dendrobatid, the Golden Supatá poison dart frog, which André Schreiber observed in Colombia.

Handbook of food plants for tortoises and other reptiles

Handbook of forage plants 2nd revised editionMarion Minch is not only a successful breeder of diverse tortoises for many years, but also an excellent connoisseur of native wild herbs. She founded and runs samenkiste.de, which is well known to many tortoise keepers and nature lovers. Her name is inextricably linked with reptile care and species-appropriate nutrition for tortoises. Her handbook of food plants summarises the most important native food plants for herbivorous and omnivorous reptiles. She not only considers tortoises, but also iguanas, spiny-tailed dragons and even chameleons. From the basics of plant biology to native wild herbs to suitable food plants for hardy tropical reptile species, this comprehensive work provides the basis for species-appropriate keeping. In the expanded and supplemented 2nd edition, the plant section is divided according to flower colour. This makes it even easier to identify wild herbs. The work has also been supplemented with a wealth of additional information and many pictures.
