Nine species comprise the arboreal boidae genus Corallus. Combined, they range from Guatemala in northern Central America to southeastern Brazil in South America, and two species occur on islands in the West Indies. Based on extensive fieldwork by the author extending over 25 years, observations from colleagues, and the literature, Natural History of Neotropical Treeboas (genus Corallus) summarizes, often in great detail, our current knowledge of treeboa habitats, activity, diet, foraging strategies, defensive behaviors, predators, reproduction, population characteristics, and the shared history of humans and treeboas, and the impact humans have had on the treeboa natural history. In addition to more than 270 color photos depicting treeboa color variation, habitats, predation and mating, the book also includes maps, numerous graphs, 25 tables, and over 400 literature references. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Robert W Henderson has conducted research on Neotropical treeboas for about 25 years, elucidating aspects of their natural history and monitoring changes in populations over time, emphasizing in particular how these snakes have adjusted in light of human-mediated changes to their habitat, prey base, and predators. Each chapter of this book provides insights, a large percentage of them firsthand, into what we know about these intriguing snakes. Hardcover, 338 pages.
