In Episode 112 of The Retic Lounge, Lucas and Nathan continue their deep dive into *The Complete Reticulated Python* by Glen McClellan with the next installment of our book club series. This time, we’re breaking down chapters 3 and 4, which explore fascinating topics related to the origins and evolution of reticulated pythons.

- Chapter 3: Origins of M. R. Jampeanus and M. R. Saputrai– We dive into the evolutionary history of two unique reticulated python subspecies and their distinct characteristics.
- Chapter 4: Insular Dwarfism – Discover the concept of insular dwarfism, the phenomenon where reptiles evolve to be smaller in isolated island environments, and its role in shaping reticulated python localities.

Join us as we uncover the scientific research and historical context that makes this book the most comprehensive guide to reticulated pythons ever written. For those wanting to follow along, you can [purchase *The Complete Reticulated Python* on Amazon](https://www.amazon.com) and dive deeper into these fascinating chapters with us.
