Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
This second volume in the A Veterinary Guide To The Parasites Of Reptiles series provides complete information necessary for an accurate diagnosis and treatment of reptiles affected by arthropod parasites (excluding mites). Susan Barnard (Department of Herpetology, Zoo Atlanta) and Lance A. Durden (Institute of Arthropodology and Parasitology, Georgia Southern University) collaborate to produce a text that is comprehensive and presented in annotated outline form for quick reference. Chapters are divided by arthropod groups (true bugs, flies, fleas, and ticks), and includes descriptions, hosts, host locations, sources of infestation and life cycles. Also included is a chapter on laboratory procedures for the herpetoculturist, and a bibliography of more than 430 references. Also highly recommended is the first volume in this series, A Veterinary Guide To The Parasites Of Reptiles: Volume 1, Protozoa.
