This document formatted for the WWW by F. Wayne King and Kenneth L. Krysko, 1999 Only 38 species of amphibians and reptiles are known from Fort Matanzas National Monument. Fort Matanzas National Monument occupies 138 acres (56 hectares) on the southern tip of Anastasia Island and 175 acres (71 hectares) on the northern third of Rattlesnake Island — barrier islands separated from the Florida mainland by the Matanzas River and the Intracoastal Waterway. Fewer species of amphibians and reptiles are found on coastal barrier islands than on the adjacent mainland, primarily because freshwater is scarce. Amphibians and reptiles on the islands must be able to find what little moisture is available and to survive until the next rain.

    About amphibians. amphibians are vertebrates (animals with a backbone) just likereptiles, mammals, fish, and birds. There are three basic groups of amphibians.

    Extractions: About Amphibians Amphibians are vertebrates (animals with a backbone) just like reptiles, mammals, fish, and birds. Amphibians can be separated from other groups because they have moist, glandular skin and their bodies lack scales, hair, feathers or claws. The word amphibian comes from the Greek word 'amphibios' which means two lives: amphibians have a larval stage and an adult stage that are usually very different from each other. A good example is the change or metamorphosis from the larval gill-breathing tadpole to the adult lung-breathing frog. There are three basic groups of amphibians. The first group is frogs and toads, the second is salamanders and newts, and the third is worm-like animals that are found only in the tropics. Amphibians are "cold-blooded" which means that their body temperature is the same as the surrounding air, water or soil. Some frogs can even survive freezing temperatures. The frog's body produces a chemical that acts like the antifreeze we use in cars. This chemical keeps the cells alive during freezing temperatures. Most amphibians have lungs like other vertebrate. However, some species of salamanders lack lungs completely. All amphibians use their thin, moist skin to take in oxygen. Many breathe through gills, especially when in their larval stage.

    Extractions: Spring and summer evenings are filled with the chorus of frogs. Their courtship ensemble create a blend of peeps, growls, twangs and trills. Salamanders hunt in the understory and along the edges of streams. Summer is also the time of the tadpole, or polywog, and toward the end of the season, a time when many of the salamander larvae can be found in diminishing pools and larger bodies of water. In autumn, the amphibians begin to quiet down, but they can still be found along the edges of water and in the forest. It is also the beginning of the mating season of the

    Extractions: and Identification Guide Interest in amphibians continues to rise as people become more aware of this fascinating group of animals. To the uninitiated all frogs may look alike; ditto for salamanders (in the same manner that beginning birders are overwhelmed by the immense variety of small brown birds!). One of the purposes of this CHECKLIST and online IDENTIFICATION GUIDE is to help you learn what species exist in North America (north of Mexico). Go directly to checklist: Caudata: Salamanders Anura: Frogs and Toads Notice: All images contained hereafter are the property of the said photographer.They are not to be reproduced,copied, printed, stored, or distributed without written permission of the photographer. The checklist is also accompanied by a growing identification guide An advantage that the herpetologist has over the ornithologist is that his or her study animal can often be approached quite closely for a good look or photo, or even to be captured. However, before attempting to capture any animals make sure that you know what species are protected by law ! Also, keep in mind that being captured on film is far less stressful than being physically captured, and that a good photo often suffices for identification purposes. Nevertheless, some species must be caught for positive identification. If this is necessary make sure you have the proper equipment and training (if you have no experience in this find someone that can teach you).
