Download or read book The Larvae of Indo Pacific Coastal Fishes written by Jeffrey Martin Leis and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2000 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume in the Fauna Malesiana book series gives an extensive overview of the larval development of 124 families of fishes, many of them of importance for both fishery and from ecological perspectives. The families that are described originate from the center of global marine biodiversity: the tropical Indo-Pacific Oceans, a region rich in coral reefs, as well as mangrove, estuarine, and coastal shelf habitats. The identification guide not only documents the ontogeny of these fishes but also provides the means to identify these extraordinarily diverse larvae to the level of family. The book offers a wealth of instructive and detailed figures and illustrations (219 plates, each consisting of approximately 4 figures) for enabling the identification of these families and their larval specialization.

This book was released on 2009-01-03 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is perhaps because fishes live in a buoyant medium, whether it be fresh or sea water, that they show a diversity in body shapes that is unparalleled by other vertebrates. There is also a unique diversity in the modes of reproduction, whether by external or internal fertilization, and this, with the morphology and fine structure of the reproducti
Download or read book Feather Mite Family Eustathiidae Acarina written by Paul Peterson and published by Academy of Natural Sciences. This book was released on 2007-12 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The feather mite family Eustathiidae Oudemans is a presumably monophyletic group of ectoparasites restricted to swifts & crested swifts (Apodiformes: Apodidae & Hemiprocnidae). The mites occur in tandem between the barbs of the primary regimes of the wings of field-collected birds & museum skins. Discrete spatial relations exist between the pop¿s. of different mite species when these co-occur on an individual bird. The secondaries, tertiaries, coverts, & retrices of the tail provide loci of infestations in such instances. This study establishes a classification & describes the morphology & host-parasite assoc. of the Eustathiidae. All taxa are (re)described, keys are provided for the determination of genera & species, & host-parasite assoc. are cross-listed. Illus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Early Life History (ELH) of marine fishes in Fishing Area 31, which includes the western central North Atlantic, Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico, has remained incomplete over the years. This certainly wasn't because of any lack of interest, but rather a lack of a comprehensive merging of studies that would provide a broad understandi
Download or read book Fish Evolution and Systematics Evidence from Spermatozoa written by Barrie G. M. Jamieson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-05-23 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this 1991 book, Professor Jamieson masterfully brings together the literature on fish spermatozoa and voluminous work on the evolutionary history of fishes to provide a detailed synthesis of the two fields of fish spermatology and fish systematics. The author begins by considering invertebrate phyla related to the chordates, and goes through the lower chordates and early fishes to the line leading to amphibians and to highest teleosts. His treatment provides a review of fish systematics based on the classical evidence of gross morphology in a cladistic framework and a critical integration of this with information on the degree to which spermatozoa support of conflict with the various hypotheses of relationship. Additionally, Professor Jamieson is joined by Luke K. -P. Leung to give a review of the principles of biological cryopreservation and of the live preservation of fish gametes.
