Herpetology explains why amphibians and reptiles, which are distantly related evolutionary lineages, are grouped in the discipline known as herpetology, and describes the position of amphibians and reptiles within the evolution of vertebrates. Part I asks, what are amphibians and reptiles? It considers the origins, systematics, and diversity of amphibians and reptiles. Part II looks at the way that amphibians and reptiles actually function. It looks at reproduction and feeding. The third part questions what amphibians and reptiles do? It looks at how they communicate, mate, and at their diets. The last part looks to the future, considering the conservation of amphibians and reptiles and their prospects for survival.
