Description
The Descriptive Catalogue of the Reptiles of British India is a seminal work in herpetology and natural history, meticulously compiled by William Theobald. This hardcover edition provides an exhaustive examination of reptile species found throughout the Indian subcontinent, including detailed descriptions, classification systems, and behavioral characteristics.
Originally published as a definitive reference, this catalogue catalogs hundreds of reptile species with scientific precision and naturalistic observation. Each entry includes morphological details, geographic distribution, and ecological notes that remain valuable for modern herpetologists and biodiversity researchers. The work reflects the systematic approach to zoological documentation prevalent in 19th-century natural history studies.
Essential for libraries, educational institutions, and serious naturalists, this reprint by Gyan Publishing House makes this classic text accessible to contemporary scholars studying Indian fauna, reptilian biology, and the history of zoological classification.
