A systematic field study documents the amphibian and reptile fauna of rainforests in southern El Petén, describing the area's physiography, climate, vegetation and collecting localities, and presenting specimen-based species accounts of varying completeness. The work analyzes species composition, ecological habits, and geographic relationships with nearby regions using quantitative indices, offers a hypothetical list of additional species, and discusses distribution, variation, and life-history notes, concluding with a concise summary and cited references.
