Excerpt from The Reptiles of the Indo-Australian Archipelago, Vol. 2: Ophidia With 117 Illustrations In bringing this second volume of the indo-australian Reptiles before the public, I may be allowed gratefully to acknowledge the industry and constant application of Miss DE rooij, which were necessary to complete in so short a space of time the first comprehensive work about the Reptiles, living in the indo-australian region. In the present volume 84 genera and 318 species of snakes are described. Only very few of them have not yet been found in the Archipelago. They. Are none the less included because Miss DE rooij rightly supposes that they will be discovered in future also in this part of the world. With the present volume the work about the indo-australian Reptiles is completed. It will certainly be of great help to students of this group of animals. Besides, I hope not to be wrong in supposing that it will also be of interest to residents in the Archipelago, many of whom are attracted by the animals living around them, but who lack works to guide them. Such a guide they will find in the work of Miss DE rooij. The numerous figures, so ably and accurately drawn by Mr. J. F. Obbes will greatly facilitate the use of the descriptions.
