Condition: New. 204, 200 col photos, col distribution maps. . HB. NEW. . Stephan Ettmar's monograph combines a scientific overview of the species currently classified in the genus Mesoclemmys with detailed husbandry information. Fieldwork in South America has been incorporated, as well as the examination of relevant museum speci…mens. The comprehensive husbandry tips (from the enclosure and technical aspects to feeding) also make the book a valuable resource for keepers of other aquatic turtle genera.Preparations for this book spanned over a decade and included research trips to Brazil, French Guiana, and Paraguay. For the manuscript, scientific collections at museums in Dresden, London, Paris, and Vienna, as well as the CRI in Oviedo, Florida, and the INPA in Manaus, Brazil, were consulted. Furthermore, visits to private and public live animal collections in Brazil, Germany, French Guiana, Austria, Paraguay, the Czech Republic, and the USA provided additional knowledge about the diversity of chelids and further information on successful captive husbandry. Although the author's primary research interest lies in the ecology of Neotropical chelids, he keeps and breeds other turtles, fish, and invertebrates as a hobby. [9783899734423].

Stephan Ettmar's monograph unites the scientific synopsis of the species currently present in the genus Mesoclemmys, with detailed data on keeping and breeding. Field work in South America was included as well as the examination of relevant museum specimens. The wide-ranging husbandry advice (from the container, through the tech…nical aspects to feeding and feeder animals) makes Toad-Headed Turtles of the Genus Mesoclemmys a valuable source for owners of other genera of turtles. Preparations for the present book took over a decade and included field trips to South America (Brazil, French Guiana and Paraguay). In preparation for the manuscript, scientific collections of the natural history museums in Dresden, London, Paris and Vienna as well as the CRI in Oviedo, Florida, and the INPA in Manaus, Brazil, were visited. Additionally, visits to private and public (live) collections in Austria, Brazil, the Czech Republic, French Guiana, Germany, Paraguay and the USA were used to gain knowledge about the diversity in chelid turtles and their captive husbandry. Although the author's main research focus is set on the ecology of neotropical Chelidae, he keeps and breeds other turtles, geckos, fish and invertebrates as a hobby. Frankfurt a. M.
