Dendrobatidae Poison Frogs A phantastic Journey through Ecuador - Peru - Kolumbien Vol. I bis III
Christman, Siegfried P.

This monumental work, compiled by Christmann over four years of work according to his own information, shows the results of many trips in the form of a travel diary and compares the development of local populations over a long period of time, and also describes important results from many years of breeding experience. The photos show many color forms, about which any information has often been missing. In many of the images you can tell that it was important to the author to photograph unusual color forms in the biotope, even under difficult conditions, rather than under artificial terrarium conditions. In detail, the work is divided into parts I, Epipedobates tricolor, observations in nature, husbandry and breeding, II, Dendrobates quinquevittatus group, D. reticulatus, D. imitator, D.i. intermedius, D.i. yurigmaguensis, D. Fantasticus, D. variabilis, D. lamasi, D. ventrimaculatus, D. duellmanni, D. quinquevittatus s.s., field observations, husbandry, breeding, hybridization problems, III, The Dendrobates histrionicus group, observations in the biotope, husbandry and breeding, Supplying ootrophic larvae. This work, driven by enthusiasm, allows many new and interesting approaches to thinking thanks to its completely animal-oriented perspective. Volumes 1-3 are only available together. Complete price for volumes 1-3.
