Item description from seller

79 Pages Indexed. August 20, 1949 Edition. Tight trade paperback punched for a three hole binder. Shows low level of wear to cover edges and corners. Owner's name inked in small letters at top of front cover. Pasted Pardee Ex-Libris inside of front cover. near faultless interior text pages on high quality glossy paper. There is a correction of the nomenclature of two snakes that were reversed. There have been a number of changes to nomenclature since the first edition of this book was published in 1940. Many species and subspecies have been divided as more collecting has been done in critical areas and larger series have been available to taxonomic workers. Much research work has been done and names having priority to those in use in 1940 have ben found, necessitating changes in the names of of United States snakes. The endings of the specific or subspecific names of several snakes have been chaned to agree in gender with the generic names. In this second edition the general layout remains the same. First there is a generic key in whcih correct taxonomic sequence has been abandoned for the sake of convenience. This followed by keys to the various genera arranged alphabetically. There is so much variation in scalation, color, and pattern, both geographically and individually, among snakes of the same subspecies, that an occasional misidentification will be made, but it is believed that most specimens will be run down correctly. All available literature has been used bring the Key up to date, not only in nomenclature but ranges as well. Contents: Introduction to the Second Edition, Introducton to the First Edition, A List of the Snakes of the United States, Use of Key, Generic Key, Synoptic Key, Key to Each Genus Sorted Alphabeteically, Drawings Showing Scale Nonmenclature, and Glossary. A book from the Jack McK. Pardee Collection. Mr. Pardee was a collector of Americana who focused on frontier and natural history, hunting, wildlife, and firearms and is noted not only for his book selections but for his careful handling and storage. Most of his collection had faultless interior pages. E-mail for more information regarding the Pardee collection.
