Herpetological Review 46(4), 2015 GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION 597 Herpetological Review, 2015, 46(4), 597–601. © 2015 by Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles Significant New Records of Amphibians and Reptiles from Georgia, USA Distributional maps found in Amphibians and Reptiles of Georgia (Jensen et al. 2008), along with subsequent geographical distribution notes published in Herpetological Review, serve as essential references for county-level occurrence data for herpetofauna in Georgia. Collectively, these resources aid biologists by helping to identify distributional gaps for which to target survey efforts. Herein we report newly documented county records for a variety of amphibian and reptile species in Georgia. All records below were verified by David Bechler (VSU), Nikole Castleberry (GMNH), David Laurencio (AUM), Lance McBrayer (GSU), and David Steen (SRSU), and datum used was WGS84.
