Our publication, the RADIATA, is one of the most popular journals about chelonians. For members of the German Herpetological Society it is free of charge, otherwise the cost is included in the subscription fee. Now since the third issue of 2001, it is also available in English, and thus RADIATA is becoming well established internationally. Topics such as observations on natural habitat, as well as caring, raising and breeding chelonians, are treated by international authors. Furthermore, protection of nature and species does not get missed out. Quite simply, the topics include everything about turtles and tortoises. Since 2000, the quarterly issue of RADIATA contains 36 pages. Due to space restriction, dates and information about activities of the working group and the associations had to give way and these are now published in MINOR (in German). Thus MINOR has become an additional newsletter for all members of the AG Schildkröten.


Issues from 2000-2001 (in German) and 2001-2008 (in English and German) still are available. Archive / Imprint
