Description
"This book introduces reptiles as an intriguing group of animals and provides a comprehensive treatment of the species which inhabit the south-eastern highlands of the Australian mainland. This region, almost entirely bounded by the 500-metre contour, extends from near Goulburn in New South Wales to just east of Melbourne in Victoria, and includes the Australian Capital Territory, the Australian Alps and associated mountain ranges. Much of the region rises above 1000 metres where snow is present during the winter months."--BOOK JACKET.
