商品描述
The Biology of Skinks of the Genus Lampropholis provides a comprehensive and detailed summary of all aspects of the biology of a diverse and widespread group of Australian lizards. Included are two extremely common, widespread species, one of which has been inadvertently introduced into New Zealand and Hawaii, as well as a many satellite species with very restricted geographic distributions. The authors synthesize a myriad of sources, articles and unpublished theses integrating scattered data and providing the first detailed, comprehensive account of this group.

Lampropholis 屬石龍子的生物學
本書全面且詳盡地整理了澳洲一個多樣且廣泛分布的蜥蜴類群之各個生物學面向。其中包括兩種極為常見、分布廣泛的物種；其中一種已在無意間被引入紐西蘭與夏威夷。此外，本書也涵蓋許多地理分布極為受限的衛星物種。作者整合大量資料來源、研究論文與未出版的學位論文，彙整分散各處的資料，首次對這個類群提出詳細且全面的介紹。
作者簡介
Shelley Burgin has a PhD from Macquarie University focused on the taxonomy and phylogenic relationships of Lampropholis skinks. In 2001 was appointed 'Fellow of the Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales; Emeritus Professor, University of Western Sydney in 2011; and Member (General Division), Order of Australia in 2018 'for significant service to environmental science education as an academic, author, and mentor, and to zoology and conservation'. Her research is mainly in environmental ecology/biology with approximately 200 publications, the majority on reptiles. Contribution to recent books have included co-editor with Tor Hundloe of 'Environmental Offsets' in 2021, and in 2015 the contribution of four chapters to 'The Gold Coast Transformed: From Wilderness to Urban Ecosystem' edited by Hundloe T, McDougall B, Page C. Both these books were published by CSIRO Publishing.
Harold Heatwole has four doctorates and holds Professorships at North Carolina State University and University of New England. He researches herpetology, biogeography, polar ecosystems, vegetation dynamics, as well as the ecology of ants, tardigrades, and seabirds. He was a co-editor of Volume 11, Part 6 of the Amphibian Biology series, Status of Conservation and Decline of Amphibians: Australia, New Zealand, and Pacific Islands and a co-editor of Volume 12 Reproductive Technologies and Biobanking for the Conservation of Amphibian, both published by CSIRO.
