A Naturalist's Guide to the Frogs of Australia is an easy-to-use photographic identification guide to the 262 species and 6 subspecies of frog in Australia. It is perfect for resident and visitor alike. High-quality photographs from Australia's top nature photographers are accompanied by detailed species descriptions, which include nomenclature, size, distribution, habits and habitat. The user-friendly introduction covers communication and calling behaviour, breeding and life cycles, frogs as indicators of environmental health and amphibian declines, frog observation and ethical field study techniques, and frog-friendly gardens. The third edition features a new introduction, a completely revised section on tree frogs to reflect the latest taxonomy, 15 new species and numerous new photographs. Also included is an up-to-date checklist of all of the frogs of Australia encompassing, for each species, its common and scientific name, its presence in a particular state or territory and its global IUCN status as at 2025.
