Ernest Anthony Liner was a pharmaceutical sales representative for 32 years before he retired. Throughout his life, however, he has studied herpetology in his native Louisiana and in the southeastern United States, Texas, México, Honduras, and Costa Rica. He became enamoured with the Méxican herpetofauna and spent most of his free time on field trips into this fascinating country amassing a large collection of preserved material, now at the American Museum of Natural History. He also collected a library of herpetological books. He is the author or co-author of over 130 scientific papers. He has discovered a number of new species. In 1993, he was recognized by the Southwestern Association of Naturalists for his service to the society. In 1998, the University of Colorado at Boulder awarded him an honorary D.Sc. degree. He is currently working on volume 8 of the Synopsis of the Herpetofauna of México, volume 21 of Biology of the Reptilia, an update of the scientific and common names of the reptiles and amphibians of México, and the Reptiles and Amphibians of Nuevo Leon, México.
