This is the most comprehensive volume about Australia's incredibly beautiful and interesting freshwater fishes, the rainbowfish, blue-eyes and hardyheads, ever attempted. It shows all species of Australian rainbowfish and blue-eyes, and most of their colour forms known to date, as well as almost all hardyheads and their forms. The quality colour reproduction of the 311 images is as natural as possible. The 26 x 21 cm size of the book, in portrait orientation (almost A 4), allows the images to be large enough to show most species in natural size or larger, and all fish are shown in prime condition. There are also many habitat shots for those readers not being able to visit these places themselves, often showing the type localities the species. The text is informative and up to date and deliberately kept simple to be understood by the general public, and hopefully inspire interest in these unique fishes. A must for all rainbowfish and nature lovers. Just click the Preview button to judge yourself.

This edited volume reviews our past and present understanding of the ecology of Australian freshwater fishes. It compares patterns and processes in Australia with those on other continents, discusses the local relevance of ecological models from the northern hemisphere and considers how best to manage our species and their habitats in the face of current and future threats. In view of these challenges, the need for redress is urgent. The chapters are written by some of our foremost researchers and managers, developing themes that underpin our knowledge of the ecology, conservation and management of fish and fish habitats. For each theme, the authors formulate a synthesis of what is known, consider the need for new perspectives and identify gaps and opportunities for research, monitoring and management. The themes have an Australian context but draw upon ideas and principles developed by fish biologists in other parts of the world. The science of freshwater fish ecology in Australia has grown rapidly from its roots in natural history and taxonomy. This book offers an introduction for students, researchers and managers, one that the authors hope will carry Australian fish biology and resource management to new levels of understanding.

With some 480 currently known fresh- and brackish-water fish species, Suriname has a rich inland fish fauna that is related to the most diverse freshwater fish fauna on planet Earth, i.e. that of the Amazon River. Interest in the freshwater fishes of Suriname by naturalists and scientists extends back over more than two centuries. Suriname is undoubtedly the site of origin of the oldest extant preserved specimens of South American fishes and 19 Surinamese fish species were described and figured by Linnaeus. Building on ichthyological studies initiated in the 1960s by the Brokopondo Project, this book provides an introduction to the freshwater fish fauna of Suriname, including identification keys, photographs of the species and descriptions of their habitats, that should be especially useful to decision makers, conservation biologists, aquarium hobbyists and eco-tourists.
