This unique and comprehensive reference showcases the basic anatomy and diversity of all 82 orders of fishes and more than 150 of the most commonly encountered families, focusing on their distinctive features. Accurate identification of each group, including its distinguishing characteristics, is supported with clear photographs of preserved specimens, primarily from the archives of the Marine Vertebrate Collection at Scripps Institution of Oceanography. This diagnostic information is supplemented by radiographs, additional illustrations of particularly diverse lineages, and key references and ecological information for each group. An ideal companion to primary ichthyology texts, Fishes: A Guide to Their Diversity gives a broad overview of fish morphology arranged in a modern classification system for students, fisheries scientists, marine biologists, vertebrate zoologists, and everyday naturalists. This survey of the most speciose group of vertebrates on Earth will expand the appreciation of and interest in the amazing diversity of fishes. 606 $aFishes$xAnatomy 606 $aFishes$vClassification 606 $aFishes$vIdentification 610 $aclassification systems. 610 $adistinguishing characteristics. 610 $aecological information. 610 $afield guide. 610 $afish morphology. 610 $afish species. 610 $afisheries scientists. 610 $afishes. 610 $afishing and fishermen. 610 $aillustrated. 610 $alife sciences. 610 $amarine biologists. 610 $amarine vertebrate collection. 610 $anatural history. 610 $anaturalists. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $aphotographs. 610 $aradiographs. 610 $areference guide. 610 $ascripps institution of oceanography. 610 $aspecies diversity. 610 $aspecies identification. 610 $asport fishing. 610 $atextbooks. 610 $azoologists. 615 0$aFishes$xAnatomy. 615 0$aFishes 615 0$aFishes 676 $a597 700 $aHastings$b Philip A.$01702850 702 $aWalker$b H.
