"Type specimens of amphibians and reptiles in the Museum of Natural History, the University of Kansas" by William E. Duellman and Barbara Berg is a scientific publication written in the early 1960s. This document serves as a catalog of type specimens housed in the Museum of Natural History at the University of Kansas, focusing primarily on amphibians and reptiles. The book likely aims to enhance the understanding of herpetological diversity through detailed
listings of species and their respective type specimens. The content of the book presents an organized list of 125 species and subspecies of amphibians and reptiles, detailing holotypes and paratypes collected primarily from Costa Rica. Each entry provides specific information, including catalog numbers, locality data, collector names, and dates of collection. Alongside the list, the work discusses instances of previous errors in specimen identification and location, thus contributing to the accuracy and reliability of herpetological classification and research. The authors aspire to facilitate accessibility for systematists and researchers in the field, ultimately reinforcing the significance of the University of Kansas' collection in the broader context of amphibian and reptile studies.
