| Abstract |
|
We compiled a total of 134,404 vouchered records (specimens or photographs) of Florida amphibians and reptiles from 58 museums or other institutions. We supplemented these records with 43,319 unvouchered or unverified records from the scientific and popular literature, reports, and credible survey databases. Whenever possible, questionable vouchers were examined by the authors or by staff of the institutions where the specimens were housed, and corrections were made when needed. Unverified records could not be examined, and we excluded unverified records considered to be of unlikely validity. We georeferenced all records and then used these data to generate distributional maps for the 142 native and 56 non-native species of amphibians and reptiles known to occur in Florida. Maps for each species are accompanied by the species current scientific and common names, a brief discussion of its geographic distribution (including the number of vouchered records and counties in which it has been found, potential counties of occurrence, and/or identification errors), earliest known voucher, and taxonomy (if changed recently). Discussion of the physiography, climate, river drainages, biogeography, habitats, and ecoregions of Florida provides context for understanding patterns of distribution of the Florida herpetofauna.
