• The Surrey Amphibian and Reptile Group (SARG) have recently launched a new website at: http://surrey-arg.org.uk/ . Although in the early stages of development this site is already very nicely illustrated and it should prove to be a very useful source of information about British Amphibians and Reptiles.
