Interest in the freshwater fishes of Suriname by naturalists and scientists extends back over more than two centuries. Suriname is undoubtedly the site of origin of the oldest extant preserved specimens of South American fishes and 19 Surinamese fish species were described and figured by Linnaeus. Building on ichthyological studies initiated in the 1960's by the Brokopondo Project, this book provides an introduction to the freshwater fish fauna of Suriname, including identification keys, photographs of the species and descriptions of their habitats, that should be especially useful to decision makers, conservation biologists, aquarium hobbyists and eco-tourists. 410 0$aFauna of Suriname$v2. 606 $aFreshwater fishes$zSuriname 606 $aFishes$zSuriname 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFreshwater fishes 615 0$aFishes 676 $a597.176 700 $aMol$b Jan H.$f1958-$0935665 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462233303321 996 $aThe freshwater fishes of Suriname$92107610 997 $aUNINA
