INTRODUCTION 



The present bibliography consists of all the papers, 

 abstracts and reviews that have appeared in the Proceedings and 

 Transactions of the Texas Academy of Science, Volumes 1-30, 1892- 

 1948, Special Publications of the Texas Academy of Science, 2 

 editions, 1936-1938, and the Texas Journal of Science, Volumes 

 1-45, 1949-1993 concerning amphibians and reptiles. Abstracts by 

 title only are not listed. Abstracts have Abs. placed after the 

 title. All titles are numbered sequentially. All authors are 

 listed alphabetically with junior author(s) cross referenced to 

 the senior author. 



The Proceedings and Transactions were sometimes published 

 together or separately. Each section was designated as such 

 giving the impression as two series so titles listed here is 

 separated into the appropriate section. The Transactions for 

 volume 22 were never published and volume 13 for the Proceedings 

 and Transactions were never published. These appeared 

 irregularly with a hiatus between the years 1913-1929. The Texas 

 Journal of Science consists of four numbers a year, sometimes 

 numbers are combined. All articles with original names are 

 preceded by an * . 



The scientific name index consists of all the herpetological 

 names from the various series listed alphabetically and 

 referenced to the numbered titles of the article in which it 

 appears. All original spellings are maintained. No scientific 

 names in the literature cited or bibliographies are listed. All^ 

 original names are boldfaced. When both i or ii are used then ii 

 is used for both. 



The author wishes to thank C. Cans for suggesting this 

 project. For suggesting the addition of a scientific name index 

 G. R, Zug and W. R. Heyer. To A. H. Chaney for the loan of a 

 large run of the early volumes and to J. R. Dixon for copying 

 Special Publications # 2 for me.
