Beschreibung

On Green Python details the results of four years of research into the conservation and ecology of Morelia viridis. This was the author's PhD topic while he was at the Australian National University. It represents the first study on the species, and is significant in its breadth and extent of coverage. The book covers growth and aging, reproductive activity, behaviour and activity patterns. It also solves the adaptive evolution of different colour morphs for juvenile and adult individuals.

Autorenportrait

David Wilson is interesting in the conservation, ecology and evolution of enigmatic and threatened fauna. He has particular interests in boas and pythons, and spent four years researching green pythons on Cape York Peninsula, Australia and in Papua New Guinea.
