2014 has been reasonably good to me so far in regards to the herping trips I have been on. I just wanted to show some of them off... although I'm quite the dreadful photographer. Regardless, here they are.
Lucasium damaeum - beaded gecko.
Nephrurus deleani - Pernatty knob-tailed gecko.
Nephrurus stellatus - starred knob-tailed gecko.
Rhynchoedura eyrensis - Eyre Basin beaked gecko.
Strophurus elderi - jewelled gecko.
Underwoodisaurus milii - thick-tailed gecko.
Aprasia pseudopulchella - Flinders worm-lizard.
Aprasia striolata - lined worm-lizard.
Delma australis - marbled-faced delma.
Delma butleri - Butler's delma.
Pygopus nigriceps - western hooded scaly-foot. This would have to be the worst photo ever taken of one of these.
Cyclodomorphus melanops elongatus - spinifex slender bluetongue.
Egernia stokesii - gidgee skink.
Liopholis inornata - desert skink. In the west of their range in SA, they were found on pale sands, where the specimens were predominantly a creamy-whitish colour and in the malleelands to the east of their range in SA, where they are found on red soils, they are also a reddish-orange colour.
Tiliqua rugosa aspera - shingleback.
Moloch horridus - thorny devil.
Austrelaps labialis - pygmy copperhead.
Parasuta spectabilis spectabilis - mallee black-headed snake.
Pseudonaja affinis - dugite.
Limnodynastes dumerilii.
Neobatrachus pictus.
I also went to Sydney for a night in early February after the ASH Conference and found these...
Lialis burtonis - Burton's legless lizard. This female was gravid.
Pygopus lepidopodus - common scalyfoot. This female was also gravid.
Acanthophis antarcticus - common death adder.
Vermicella annulatus - eastern bandy bandy.
Litoria caerulea - green tree frog. After seeing hundreds in pet shops all my life, I was happy to finally see one where they belong.
Enjoy.
