Periodical Index - Skinks

A guide to skink articles appearing in herpetogical periodicals over the past few years


Key

D=Draco

Quarterly herpetological magazine from the German Natur und Tier Verlag that usually focuses on a theme, eg agamid lizards or desert herpetofauna

E = Elaphe

German publication from the DGHT: focuses on captive husbandry and reproduction of reptiles and amphibians.

GO = Gekko

Journal of the Global Gecko Association.

I = Iguana

German twice-yearly publication from the DGHT dealing with the family Iguanidae and more recently also Agamidae.

IR = International Reptilian

European magazine, published in UK. It may alternatively be known as the Reptilian, but we have kept the IR abbreviation to distinguish it from Reptilia and Reptiles.

IT = Iguana Times

Magazine of the International Iguana Society. So far we have not added any articles from this magazine.

PR = Pet Reptile

European magazine, published in UK. Slightly more "entry level" but contains some good articles. Wound up in 2001.

PRK = Practile Reptile Keeping

UK magazine first appearing in 2009, edited by David Alderton. Like most magazines with "Reptile" in the title, also covers amphibians and invertebrates.

R = Reptilia

European magazine, published in Spain but produced in English, German and Spanish.

RH = Reptile Hobbyist

US magazine published by TFH. Merged with R&A to become R&AH (see below).

Rs = Reptiles

US magazine which bought out Vivarium. Despite the title, covers amphibians and invertebrates too. So far we have not added any articles from the magazine.

R&A = Reptile & Amphibian Magazine

Now sadly defunct, although back copies may be available at herp exhibitions, etc. For some years this was practically the only herp magazine for most non-scientific folk.

R&AH = Reptile & Amphibian Hobbyist

Formed out of the merger of Reptile Hobbyist and Reptile & Amphibian Magazine: last issue November 2001

S = Salamandra

German magazine published by the DGHT (German Herptological Association) in English and German. So far we have not added any articles from the magazine. The DGHT also publishes magazines for each of their specialist groups, eg Radiata (tortoises), Lacerta (lacertid lizards), etc. From 2005 Salamandra will be published in both English and German.

Si = Situla

French-language herpetological magazine, also covering invertebrates

Ta = Terarista

Czech herpetological magazine, published by the Terrarium Society of Prague in Czech with good English summaries

V = Vivarium

Magazine associated with Advanced Herpetological Library and Philippe de Vosjoli. Bought out by Reptiles around about the turn of the century.
