A great deal of useful information has appeared in print over the last few years in specialist herpetological magazines. If you're anything like me you have probably amassed a small library of these periodicals and now have trouble keeping tabs on what appeared in which issue. Mainly for the purposes of assisting people who want to find information on a specific species or topic, I offer the following index. It is by no means comprehensive, but it is fairly full and will be updated regularly.
