Good Luck, these thing are starting to get as rare as hens teeth. People who have them don't like parting with them. Occasionally they pop up on ebay and you would be looking at around $100 upwards

Mike Swan Herp Books is probably your best bet mate. No idea of price though. and be careful when you read it. You might lose your understanding of Morelia Spilota.

Amazon.com has three copies of the 5th edition for sale, if that's any consolation. But you'll be paying a damn site more than $100.

what makes you say that pj64?

I am not sure what's in the 5th edition but when I read a later version at Reptilegirls house recently it still didn't divide Carpets in to Diamonds, Coastal, Jungle, Darwin & MD's. It had only moved Bredli out but Jungle, Coastal, MD & Darwins were still all variegata. Reptilegirl might be able to confirm what version she has.

5th Edition recognises M.bredli as a separate species. Lists M.spilota as having three subspecies - spilota, imbricata and variegata.
