Legler is a scientific publication that was written in the late 1950s. This work presents the discovery and description of a new species of snake, specifically within the "Geophis" genus, found in Chihuahua, Mexico. The book is primarily focused on herpetology and contributes to the understanding of the biodiversity within this region. The publication details the collection of two specimens during a field expedition by the University of Kansas Museum of Natural History, highlighting the features that distinguish this new species, named "Geophis aquilonaris". Legler provides extensive descriptions of the snake's physical attributes, including scalation, coloration, and measurements, thereby positioning it within the existing classification of Mexican snakes. The findings also discuss potential geographical range and relationships to other "Geophis" species, emphasizing the ecological significance of the discovery and suggesting further research on the distribution of this genus in Mexico.
