Herpetofauna of Lake Meredith National Recreation Area and Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument (Texas, USA) is not well known. The current study (2002-03) documents nine species of amphibians and 28 species of reptiles; in addition, one species of amphibian and seven species of reptiles are known from museum specimens. Three species (Bufo debilis insidior, Cnemidophorus tesselatus, and Rhinocheilus lecontei tesselatus) are new for Moore County. The distributions of Bufo debilis insidior and Thamnophis sirtalis annectens were adjusted. An additional 13 species (three amphibians and 10 reptiles) were recorded on adjacent lands in the past, and some of those species may occur in the two protected areas as well.
