Certain to stand among the reference books of choice for anyone
interested in the continent's aquatic ecosystems, Freshwater Fishes
of North America covers the ecology, morphology, reproduction,
distribution, behavior, taxonomy, conservation, and fossil record
of each North American fish family. Volume 1 (of three) covers the
following North American families of fishes: Petromyzontidae
(Lampreys); Dasyatidae (Whiptail Stingrays); Acipenseridae
(Sturgeons); Polyodontidae (Paddlefishes); Lepisosteidae (Gars);
Amiidae (Bowfins); Hiodontidae (Mooneyes); Anguillidae (Freshwater
Eels); Engraulidae (Anchovies); Cyprinidae (Carps and Minnows); and
Catostomidae (Suckers). The encyclopedic review of each fish family
is accompanied by color photographs, maps, and original artwork
created by noted fish illustrator Joseph R. Tomelleri. The result
is a rich textual and visual experience. Widely anticipated, this
monumental reference is the result of decades of analysis and
synthesis by leading fish experts from a variety of universities,
research laboratories, museums, and aquariums. The chapter authors
of Volume 1 are: William E. Bemis; Micah G. Bennett; Michael D.
Burns; Brooks M. Burr; Anthony L. Echelle; Nicholas J. Gidmark;
Carter R. Gilbert; Howard S. GillLance Grande; Alex Haro; Phillip
M. Harris; Eric J. Hilton; Lisa J. Hopman; Gregory Hubbard; Bernard
R. Kuhajda; William J. Matthews; Deborah A. McLennan; Ian C.
Potter; Claude B. Renaud; Stephen T. Ross; Michael Sandel; Andrew
M. Simons; and Melvin L. Warren, Jr.
