However, a lack of good identification literature for certain taxa such as amphibians and reptiles (apart from snakes) substantially delays ecological research in this region. Here, we compile an illustrated species list based on three years of research in and around the Lore Lindu National Park (LLNP) area and supplement it with data from the literature. In total, our survey and the literature review revealed 25 amphibian and 54 reptile species in five and 13 families, respectively. Our results highlight the LLNP area as an important herpetological endemism hotspot in the region. Appropriate utilization of species lists like this may facilitate capacity-building of local scientists and knowledgable local guides working in ecotourism. © 2011 Deutsche Gesellschaft für Herpetologie und Terrarienkunde e.V.
