The ace photographic herpetologists at Tropical Herping are at it again! After publishing several beautiful and extremely useful guides–The Amphibians and Reptiles of Mindo and Reptiles of Galápagos–they’re now taking on the entire herpetofauna of Ecuador. If you have any doubts about their photographic chops, check out this page on Ecuadorian anoles.
And you can help make this book a reality! I’ve already done my part by sponsoring a species, but you have to guess which one.
Now you can play a major role in the publication of the 🐍 Reptiles of Ecuador 🇪🇨 book. Choose one of Ecuador’s 483 species of reptiles and your name will be displayed as its official protector or guardian in the species’ online data sheet. Your donation will help fund the last four remaining expeditions needed to find the most elusive reptiles in the country as well as cover the majority of the editing and printing costs. Every little donation helps. Click here to find out more about how can you adopt a reptile.

Great idea. Would be totally compelling if they gave every donor a pdf of the book 🙂

I’m guessing you chose anolis lyra? That’s definetley the one I’d choose, although it would be hard to choose just one, all of the reptiles are so fascinating!
