Download or read book Rays of the World written by Peter Last and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2016-12 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rays are among the largest fishes and evolved from shark-like ancestors nearly 200 million years ago. They share with sharks many life history traits: all species are carnivores or scavengers; all reproduce by internal fertilisation; and all have similar morphological and anatomical characteristics, such as skeletons built of cartilage. Rays of the World is the first complete pictorial atlas of the world’s ray fauna and includes information on many species only recently discovered by scientists while undertaking research for the book. It includes all 26 families and 633 valid named species of rays, but additional undescribed species exist for many groups. Rays of the World features a unique collection of paintings of all living species by Australian natural history artist Lindsay Marshall, compiled as part of a multinational research initiative, the Chondrichthyan Tree of Life Project. Images sourced from around the planet were used by the artist to illustrate the fauna. This comprehensive overview of the world’s ray fauna summarises information such as general identifying features and distributional information about these iconic, but surprisingly poorly known, fishes. It will enable readers to gain a better understanding of the rich diversity of rays and promote wider public interest in the group. Rays of the World is an ideal reference for a wide range of readers, including conservationists, fishery managers, scientists, fishers, divers, students and book collectors.

Download or read book Sharks Rays and Chimaeras of California written by David Ebert and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2003-05-08 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ebert has herein assembled an enormous body of knowledge about California's 43 shark species ranging from shark and human behavior to taxonomic minutiae, along with up-to-date explanations of their ecology, status and fisheries. More importantly, his Herculean effort includes the often-overlooked 25 species of skates, rays and chimaeras. That, along with the fine illustrations of Mat Squillante, should answer any question that a student, diver, natural history buff, or recreational or commercial fisher might ask."—John E. McCosker, coauthor of Great White Shark "The timing of this publication is ideal given the status of some of California's elasmobranch populations and the need for a deeper understanding of their biology, ecology, and fishery management. The book is a comprehensive treatment—if one wants to find out the latest information on any species of shark or ray off California, this is the place to go. An outstanding work!"—Gregor M. Cailliet, Professor, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, and Director, Pacific Shark Research Center

Download or read book Biology of Skates written by David A. Ebert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-25 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skates have become a concern in recent years due to the preponderance of these elasmobranchs that are caught as bycatch or as a directed fishery. This has raised concern because skates have life history characteristics that may make them vulnerable to over-exploitation. It was due to this concern that prompted Drs. David Ebert and James Sulikowski to organize an international symposium on the “Biology of Skates”. The aims and goals of the symposium were to bring together an international group of researchers to meet, discuss, perhaps develop collaborations, and present their most recent findings. The symposium was held over two days, on 13-14 July, 2006, in conjunction with the 22nd annual meeting of the American Elasmobranch Society in New Orleans, LA. A total of 31 authors from four countries contributed 16 papers that appear in this volume. The papers are broadly arranged into four separate categories: systematics and biogeography, diet and feeding ecology, reproductive biology, and age and growth. This is the first dedicated book on the biology of skates. We hope that readers will find this volume of interest and that it helps encourage and stimulate future research into these fascinating fishes.

Download or read book El juego del escondite written by Patricia Highsmith and published by Anagrama. This book was released on 1997-03-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peggy se ha suicidado en Mallorca, donde vivía con su marido una vida de bohemia dorada. ¿Por qué lo ha hecho? Más aún: ¿se ha suicidado realmente? Estas preguntas son el punto de partida de una intriga, psicológica y policíaca. El padre de Peggy, Coleman, célebre pintor norteamericano y hombre de fogoso temperamento, culpa a su yerno, Ray Garret, de la muerte de su hija y, empujado por un odio obsesivo, decide vengarla. Tras un encuentro entre ambos en Roma, Coleman dispara contra Ray y lo da por muerto. Herido muy ligeramente, Ray está más sorprendido que furioso: la actitud de Coleman se basa en un malentendido que Ray quiere disipar (antes de su regreso a Nueva York, donde quiere montar una galería de arte), por lo que lo sigue hasta Venecia. Lejos de cambiar de actitud, Coleman intenta asesinarlo de nuevo a la primera oportunidad. Salvado de morir ahogado por un gondolero, Ray comprende que se ha metido en la boca de lobo y su primera reacción es esconderse en Venecia. Con un nombre falso. ¿Por miedo y cansancio? ¿O por maquiavelismo instintivo y deseo de inculpar a su suegro, cuando la policía empieza a inquetarse por su desaparición? Las causas son más oscuras y complicadas... mientras en Venecia, transformada en una inmensa trampa, se entabla un extraño y atroz juego del escondite. Como escribió el conocido especialista de la novela policial, Julian Symons, «ciertamente, Ray y Coleman, acarreando sus alforjas de culpa personal o nacional a través de Venecia, están entre los más memorables productos de la poderosa imaginación de Miss Highsmith».
