Field Guide to the Reptiles of the Northern Territory

About the Author

Dr Chris Jolly is an ecologist with a broad interest in natural history, ecology, evolution and conservation. An inordinate fondness for Australia's reptiles has seen him traverse much of the country in search of the country’s most elusive and poorly understood species. Chris is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Macquarie University and an associate of the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory and Australian Museum. Chris has published over 40 scientific reports, books, popular science stories and journal articles. Brendan Schembri is an ecologist with most of his career spent as a field herpetologist. Brendan’s primary interest and area of expertise is reptile ecology, with particular focus on species of the Northern Territory and Kimberley. Brendan has authored several publications on the ecology and distribution of Australian reptiles. His extensive fieldwork and dedication to photography has seen Brendan amass a vast photographic collection of Australia's reptiles. Dr Stewart Macdonald has broad interests in natural history and technology, which led him to develop the Australian Reptile Online Database (www.arod.com.au) and several field guide apps. He has travelled extensively across Australia, particularly in the north, documenting the region’s wildlife. He works as an ecologist with CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency. While he studies a wide variety of creatures, including koalas and curlews, his true passion has always been reptiles.
