These are two small collections. They are actually separate, alphabetically, although I have thought about combining them since so few people seem to know what an amphibian is and the difference between them and reptiles. However, I decided to at least try to instill some basic natural information in our patrons (and staff). Since these collections are so small, I'm not really that picky about what I add and the last time I updated the collections I stopped trying to have specific call numbers.
Incidentally, some titles are not on the recommended list just because I am pretty sure they are out of print.
