Additional logistical support provided by The University of Texas ar Arlington Collection of Vertebrates A List of Useful References for Neotropical Herpetology CLICK HERE TO RETURN TO HOME PAGE Central America has captivated the imagination and motivations of numerous biologist, archaeologist, zoologist, thrill seekers, and a host of other intrepid visitors. Undoubtedly the motivating factor behind such a wide base of interest reflected towards this geographic location are the natural wonders possessed therein. What makes Central America unique in the grand scope of the Western Hemisphere? To begin one must first understand the definition of Central America. Currently two definitions exist. The first definition merely encapsulates political boundaries. These boundaries contain Mexico, El Salvador, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. The second type of definition used in reference to Central America rest upon geographic boundaries. Under this definition, Central America is the land mass south of Mexico's Isthmus de Tehuantepec and north of the Panama Canal. Honduras is one of such countries that can truly provide a rich and rugged tropical experience. In fact, Honduras possesses considerable expanses of under explored land holding untold biological richness and awaiting discoveries. The purpose of this text is to provide information regarding various species of amphibians and reptiles found in Honduras. Of course this text should be viewed as a cursory source of information regarding the herpetofauna of Honduras and not as a definitive guide. Updates will be made as new species and geographic distributions are documented. This text is still under preparation feel free to
