Nach 10 Jahren Vorbereitungszeit legt nun ein fünfköpfiges Autorenteam ein imposantes Werk vor, das sowohl durch seine detaillierten Verbreitungskarten als auch durch die Fülle eindrucksvoller Fotos besticht. Morocco is one of the most biodiverse regions in North Africa and its herpetofauna has been the subject of numerous studies, being well-known compared to other North African countries. In addition to this, Morocco has been considered in recent years as one of the most touristic countries in the region, being safe and open to tourism. There are many foreign people that visit Morocco with different aims that typically encounter many species of amphibians and reptiles.
