Over 900 species have been recorded in Mexico by Smith and Taylor (1945, 1950). Sea and land turtles are of considerable economic importance for their shells and as food. Lizards are also well represented, including about 275 species in Mexico (Smith and Taylor 1950). The large iguana and its relatives, the ctenosaurs, are generally distributed throughout the lowlands, both food items prized in many places but not by contemporary Cobaenos. Coba and Middle America have more than their share of snakes (Ophidia).

Amphibians Frogs and toads (Anura) comprise the bulk of Middle American amphibian fauna. The family Phinophrynidae (primitive frogs and termite eaters) appears only in the Mexican lowlands, the Yucatan, and northern Guatemala.
