[ noun ] (biology) a zoologist who studies reptiles and amphibians
Used in print (Clifford H. Pope, The Giant Snakes....)Other herpetologists have ascertained that in the northern United_States the prairie_rattlesnake may_not give first birth until it is four or even five years old , and that the young may be_born every_other year , rather_than annually . In 1948 , Afranio_do_Amaral , the noted Brazilian herpetologist , wrote a technical paper on the giant snakes . However , many herpetologists remain skeptical and would prefer a tentative maximum of about 30 feet . Related terms |
