About this book

The cards inform about biology, ecology, and distribution, using more than 200 original photographs or drawings and as many detailed maps. This volumes deals with Batrachoidiformes, Mugiliformes, Beloniformes, Cyprinodontiformes, Synbrachiformes, Perciformes, Pleuonectiformes, and Tetraodontiformes in fascicle 1, and Siluriformes in fascicle 2.
