From the preface The objectives of this study are three fold bring together all the taxonomic information available on Indian Gymnophiona by studying the preserved materials that lie scattered in various institutions in India attempt fresh collections to supplement the rather meagre material that is presently available describe and illustrate existing species erect new taxa if necessary document their distribution and present a treatise on the Indian Gymnophiona at the alpha taxonomy level. It is hoped that this work shall serve to inspire further research on this ancient and unique group of apodous amphibians. A chapter on Morphology and Terminology outlining the external morphological characters which have a bearing on their taxonomy is included here to assist such work. 126 pp.
