The Western Pond Turtle, Clemmys marmorata... A Natural History of the Species, synthesizes the extant literature, including close to 300 peer-reviewed journal articles, theses, technical reports, gray-literature, and herpetological books, to provide a much-needed review of the species and its status throughout its range.
