Sommario/riassunto

Examines how elasmobranch fishes - the sharks, skates, rays, and chimaeras - successfully survive in a wide range of habitats. This title explores the physiological adaptations that make these animals particularly well suited for the range of habitats where they are found, in both oceanic and freshwater realms.
