Are you going to JMIH? Are you looking for a way to give back to SSAR? We’re looking for a small number of JMIH attendees willing to take photographs of some key events at the conference. See the wishlist here: SSAR Annual Meeting Photography 2018.

If you’re interested in helping, please email us at ssarherps@gmail.com.

Calling all authors! We want to feature your latest publications in Journal of Herpetology and Herpetological Review on our website. We want to hear the story behind the research. Did the research project arise from an interesting natural history observation? Did you persevere through challenging field conditions to collect your data? Was the work motivated by an enigmatic mystery in herpetology? We want to know! We plan to feature short posts describing the personal side of your research. Send us an email at ssarherps@gmail.com if you’d like your work to be featured! Check out our “Behind the Scenes” posts for recent examples.

HR March 2018, Volume 49, Number 1. Our cover features a family group photo of Cunningham’s Skinks (Egernia cunninghami), photographed near Canberra, ACT, Australia by Julia Riley. This issue is scheduled to be mailed 27 March, although full contents are now available online to SSAR members at https://ssarherps.org/herpetological-review-pdfs/. All Natural History Notes, Geographic Distribution Notes, and Book Reviews are Open Access and are now available for download at the same link. If you are not a member of SSAR, please consider joining the leading international herpetological society. Student and online-only rates available. Follow the “Join SSAR” link on the home page. Congratulations to Julia for her outstanding cover photo!
