THE DIVERSITY OF FISHES The third edition of The Diversity of
Fishes is a major revision of the widely adopted ichthyology
textbook, incorporating the latest advances in the biology of
fishes and covering taxonomy, anatomy, physiology, biogeography,
ecology, and behavior. Key information on the evolution of various
fishes is also presented, providing expansive and conclusive
coverage on all key topics pertaining to the field. To aid in
reader comprehension, each chapter begins with a summary that
provides a broad overview of the content of that chapter, which may
be particularly useful for those using the text for a course who
don't intend to address every chapter in detail. Detailed color
photographs throughout the book demonstrate just some of the
diversity and beauty of fishes that attract many to the field. A
companion website provides related videos selected by the authors,
instructor resources, and additional references and websites for
further reading. Sample topics covered and learning resources
included in The Diversity of Fishes are as follows: How molecular
genetics has transformed many aspects of ichthyology The close
relationship between structure and function, including adaptations
to special environments Many physical and behavioral adaptations
reflecting the fact that many fishes are both predators and prey
Fish interactions with other species within fish assemblages and
broader communities, plus their impacts on ecosystems Global maps
that more accurately represent the comparative sizes of oceans and
land masses than maps used in prior editions For students,
instructors, and individuals with an interest in ichthyology, The
Diversity of Fishes is an all-in-one introductory resource to the
field, presenting vast opportunities for learning, many additional
resources to aid in information retention, and helpful
recommendations on where to go to explore specific topics further.
