Reproductive Biology of the Crocodylia is based on over 40 years of research on global crocodiles, alligators, and caimans. It brings together data and information previously scattered across publications to synthesize knowledge of the history, ecology, physiology, and anatomy as it relates to the reproductive biology of crocodilians.

The book begins with a deep look into the evolutionary history of Crocodylia species, dating back to some of the first research conducted in Ancient Egypt, and provides a comprehensive look at the physiology, current taxonomy, ecology, and sexual maturity factors of these reptiles. It then delves into detail regarding the anatomy and the cycles of both male and female reproduction systems, including nesting and incubation, temperature-dependent sex determination, and sex ratios across various species populations. This book also focuses on conservation efforts to protect the reproductive cycle of the Crocodylia, taking factors such as pollution, climate change, and human disruption into consideration.

Reproductive Biology of the Crocodylia is the ideal resource for wildlife biologists and herpetologists seeking up-to-date and thorough research data on Crocodylia conservation efforts. This book is also helpful for exotic animal veterinarians, zookeepers, and alligator or crocodile farmers.
