Why Is Darrel Frost Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Darrel Richmond Frost is an American herpetologist and systematist. He was previously head curator of herpetology at the American Museum of Natural History, as well as president of both the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles and the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists . Four taxa are named in his honor: the toad genus Frostius , the tree frog Dendropsophus frosti, Darrel's Chorus Frog Microhyla darreli, and Frost's arboreal alligator lizard Abronia frosti.
