Listed below are the species of reptiles and amphibians found within (or in immediate proximity to) the 100 mile circle (including Mexico). For the sake of standardization, we are basing our list on names presented in Crother et al (2000, 2003) (fig. 1). For those species occurring in Mexico but not in the U.S. we use Liner (1994).

Determining the distributions of the herpetofauna of the 100 mile circle was done using Stebbins (2003), Lowe et al. (1986), and the accounts in the Catalogue of North American Amphibians and Reptiles. Mexican species distribution is based on vouchered specimens at the University of Arizona herpetology colllection and the accounts in the Catalogue of North American Amphibians and Reptiles.

Each species has its own page and includes an account (in progress) and photographs. Introduced species are indicated by (Intro.). Species that occur within the region, but not within the 100 mile circle are denoted as Marginal (Marg.).
