ABOUT SWCHR

Originally founded by Gerald Keown in 2007, SWCHR is a

501(c)(3) non-profit association, governed by a board of directors

and dedicated to promoting education of the Association’s

members and the general public relating to the natural history,

biology, taxonomy, conservation and preservation needs, field

studies, and captive propagation of the herpetofauna indigenous to

the American Southwest.

THE SWCHR LOGO

There are several versions of the SWCHR logo, all featuring the

Gray-Banded Kingsnake (Lampropeltis alterna), a widely-recognized

reptile native to the Trans-Pecos region of Texas as well as

adjacent Mexico and New Mexico.

A CALL FOR PAPERS

Are you a field herpetologist or a herpetoculturist (amateur or professional in either of those capacities) working with species native to the

American Southwest? Do you have a paper or an article you have written for which you would like to find a permanent repository? Want

to be assured you will always be able to share it with the world? Submit it to the SWCHR Bulletin for possible publication. Submitted

manuscripts from SWCHR members, as well as non-members, will be considered. There are no page charges to have your articles appear

in the SWCHR Bulletin, as some other publications now require.

To be accepted for publication, submissions must deal with herpetological species native to the American Southwest. Such topics as field

notes, county checklists, range extensions, taxonomy, reproduction and breeding, diseases, snake bite and venom research, captive breeding

and maintenance, conservation issues, legal issues, etc. are all acceptable. For assistance with formatting manuscripts, search ‘scientific

journal article format’ on the internet and tailor the resultant guidance to suit.

Previously published articles or papers are acceptable, provided you still hold the copyright to the work and have the right to re-publish it.

If we accept your paper or article for publication, you will still continue to be the copyright holder. If your submission has been previously

published, please provide the name of the publication in which it appeared along with the date of publication. All submissions should be

manually proofed in addition to being spell checked and should be submitted by email as either Microsoft Word or text documents.

Send submissions to [email protected].

SWCHR CODE OF ETHICS

As a member of the Southwestern Center for Herpetological Research, I subscribe to

the Association’s Code of Ethics.

Field activities should limit the impact on natural habitats, replacing all cover objects,

not tearing apart rocks or logs and refraining from the use of gasoline or other toxic

materials.

Catch and release coupled with photography and the limited take of non-protected

species for personal study or breeding use is permitted. The commercial take and sale

of wild-caught animals is not acceptable.

Collecting practices should respect landowner rights, including but not limited to

securing permission for land entry and the packing out of all personal trash.

Captive-breeding efforts are recognized as a valid means of potentially reducing

collection pressures on wild populations and are encouraged.

The release of captive animals including captive-bred animals into the wild is

discouraged except under the supervision of trained professionals and in accordance

with an accepted species preservation or restocking plan.

The disclosure of exact locality information on public internet forums is discouraged in

most circumstances. Locality information posted on public internet forums usually

should be restricted to providing the name of the county where the animal was found.

When specific locality data is provided to one in confidence, it should be kept in

confidence and should not be abused or shared with others without explicit

permission.

Other members of the Association are always to be treated cordially and in a respectful

manner.
