The reptile list is primarily based on Ananjeva, N.B., K. Munkhbayer, N.L. Orlov, V.F. Orlova, D.V. Semenova, and K. Terbish. 1997. Amphibians and Reptiles of Mongolia: Reptiles. Taxonomy has been updated based on The EMBL Reptile Database: Uetz, P. et al., The Reptile Database, http://www.reptile-database.org.

The amphibian list is primarily based on Kusmin, S.L., L.Y. Borkin, and K. Munkbayer. 1988. Amphibians of the Mongolian People's Republic. Taxonomy has been updated based on Frost, Darrel R. 2007. Amphibian Species of the World: an Online Reference. Version 5.0 (1 February, 2007). Electronic Database accessible at http://research.amnh.org/herpetology/amphibia/index.php. American Museum of Natural History, New York, USA.

Several other species either may occur here based on their proximity to Mongolia, or their presence is based on unverified reports. These haven't been included in the list.

We will update the lists as more data on these species is obtained; and as they become available, pages with information on the species and their parasites will be added.
