Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fishes of Malabar Whilst stationed at Cochin on the Malabar Coast of India, from 1859 to 1864, the annually increasing importance of its fisheries came most prominently to my notice. Desirous of ascertaining what species of fish were most abundant, and which were best adapted for different manufactures, I was induced to make a collection of those procurable from the sea, estuaries, or fresh waters, with notes on their habits and uses, to elucidate which plain and coloured drawings of each species were made as soon as possible after the fish had been captured. When returning to Europe a note-book and two boxes of specimens were unfortunately mislaid, but one of the latter having been recovered, several species will be found included in this work which are absent from my Catalogue of The Fishes of Cochin, published in the Proceedings of "The Zoological Society of London." The portion of India comprised under the denomination of Malabar, and the fishes of which are included in this work, extends from Mangalore on its western coast, in latitude 15 25' N. and longitude 74 50' E., to Cape Comorin, in latitude 8 10' N. and longitude 77 30' E.; whilst inland it reaches to the Western Ghauts. Having through the kindness of Colonel Sir Henry James, R. E. been shown the mode of engraving on copper pursued at the Ordnance Office, I have been induced to personally delineate most of the new species described in this work, as well as some whose existence was previously deemed doubtful. My thanks are especially due to the following friends. To the Rev. Henry Baker, Junior, who kindly collected many specimens from the Hill ranges of Travancore, a portion of Malabar which I was unable to personally visit; six species received from him appear to be new and will be severally pointed out in the descriptions. To G. A. Ballard, Esq., the Collector of Malabar, for the returns of his collectorate and much useful and interesting information on the present state of the coast fisheries. To J. Newill, Esq., the British Resident of Travancore and Cochin, for the returns from those Native States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The waters of the Indo-Pacific were at the centre of the global expansion of marine capture fisheries in the twentieth century, yet surprisingly little has been written about this subject from a historical perspective. This book, the first major study of the history of fishing in Asia and Oceania, presents the case-studies completed through the History of Marine Animal Populations (HMAP) initiative. It examines the marine environmental history and historical marine ecology of the Indo-Pacific during a period that witnessed the dramatic escalation of industrial fishing in these seas.
Download or read book Fish Drying and Smoking written by PeterE. Doe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the current and traditional fish smoking and drying practices in terms of the basic underlying principles of biochemistry and food technology. Readers will soon become aware of the discrepancies between the basic scientific knowledge and modern technology on one hand, and the traditional processes described in some chapters. This book bridges that gap. The emphasis in this book in on the critical factors which affect the quality of products produced in less technological cultures-products which have been largely neglected in technically advanced countries-and on developments and innovations which have occurred in the last five years. The critical factors affecting the quality of fish products in technically advanced countries have been summarized. The answers to questions on the quality of smoked, cured and dried fish can be found from an understanding of the physical, chemical, and biological factors influencing the functionality of the product at every stage of its preparation and subsequent handling from the time the fish is harvested to the time it is eaten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biodiversity is declining at an alarming rate due to anthropogenic activities around the world. This book is the first volume in the new series Biodiversity Hotspots of the World, which highlights the 36 hotspot regions of the world, regions that were designated as reaping maximum benefit from preservation efforts. This series is our humble attempt to document these hotspots as a conservation and preservation measure. This first volume in the series focuses on the Western Ghats and Sri Lanka, construed as forming a community of species because of their shared biogeographical history. The volume explores the diversity and conservation efforts of the extraordinarily rich species found here, including plants, many of which are found nowhere else in the world; forests, which face tremendous population pressure and have been dramatically impacted by demands for timber and agricultural land; as well as the hotspot’s diverse mammals, birds, insects, and amphibian species, and more. The volumes in this series will be essential resources for researchers and practitioners in the fields of conservation biology, ecology, and evolution.
