Dear Friends, Colleagues and Otter Enthusiasts!
I am very thankful to Janice Reed-Smith, David Rowe-Rowe, and the African Otter Network who provided us for the first time with a multi-species collection of references collecting the publications dealing with the four species present on the African continent.
I hope that this new and multispecies compilation is useful in the daily work for many of you! Together with issues 29A (Lontra canadensis), 39B (Lontra longicaudis) and 39D (Enhydra lutris), 32A (Pteronura brasiliensis) and 38C (Lutra lutra) we have now six extensive lists of references online. Please keep in mind that if you start to use the issues a proper reference should be given to show our appreciation to the amount of work that the authors providing the collections and the having done multiple updates have put into this series.
If anybody feels like doing this for another species, I can assure publication as a special issue. Please contact me and Lesley before you start working to be sure that no duplication of work occurs.
