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

"This guide will assist in the identifYing early life stages of sciaenids that occur in marine waters of the western central Atlantic, an area bounded by 35 0 N latitude, 50 0 W longitude, the equator to the south, and the continents on the west. The western-central Atlantic is primarily tropical/subtropical, is characterized by coral reef and hard bottom areas, and includes the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea"--Introduction, paragraph 1

This volume is a complete review and reference work for scientists, engineers, and students concerned with coral reefs in the Red Sea. It provides an up-to-date review on the geology, ecology, and physiology of coral reef ecosystems in the Red Sea, including data from most recent molecular studies. The Red Sea harbours a set of unique ecological characteristics, such as high temperature, high alkalinity, and high salinity, in a quasi-isolated environment. This makes it a perfect laboratory to study and understand adaptation in regard to the impact of climate change on marine ecosystems. This book can be used as a general reference, guide, or textbook.

"This guide is intended for the identification of early life history (ELH) specimens of snappers (Lutjanidae) collected principally by plankton nets from marine waters of the western central Atlantic. This area is bounded by 35° north latitude on the north, 50° west longitude on the east, the Equator on the south, and the continental margins on the west. It is basically the area defined by FAO as the Western central Atlantic Fishing Area 31 which includes the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea. The region is tropical and subtropical with important fishing areas and a high diversity of species. The area is also characterized by a large number of coral reefs"--Introduction, paragraph 1
