Ichthyology is a branch of zoology which is concerned with the study of fishes, their biology, structure, organs and discovering their species. It includes species like chondrichthyes the cartilaginous fish, jawless fish i.e. agnatha, and bony fish i.e osteichthyes. There are approximately 33,400 species of fishes being studied under ichthyology. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of this field. Such selected concepts that redefine ichthyology have been presented in this text. It unfolds the innovative aspects of this area which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this textbook.

Excerpt from Studies in Ichthyology: A Monographic Review of the Family of Atherinidae or Silversides The present paper contains a review of the genera, with an annotated list of the known species, of the fishes of the family Atherinidaj, known as "Silversides" in the eastern United States; as "Hardyheads" in Australia; as "Joel," "Sauclet," etc., in France; "Epscto" and "Lattarina" in Italy, and throughout Latin America as "Fishes of the King" (Pesce-re, Peixe-rei, Pexerey, Pescado del Rey, Peje-rei, Peje-rcy, Pejerrey). The majority of the species are tropical, though many are found within the temperate zones. Some arc marine living along sandy shores, some in the sluggish estuaries of rivers, a few in mountain torrents, or lakes; seldom in muddy water. None are known from the depths of the ocean: they arc closely confined everywhere, both to the surface and to the shoreline. The species are usually small, the tropical ones almost uniformly so, attaining a length of from two to six inches; in the temperate regions of the New World some reach a length of between one and two feet. For more than seventy-five years after the tenth edition of the Systema Nature was published, Atherina remained the only named genus of its group. The first generic divisions were made by Bonaparte in 1837; by Swainson, in 1839; by Bleckcr, in 1853; and by Girard, in 1854. In his Catalogue, however, Gunther (1861) recognized but two genera, Atherina and an unnatural assemblage for which he chose the name Atherinichthys. Since that time, however, numerous genera have been described. In the present review, we accept 38 genera and two subgenera as valid. Similarly most of the species remained long unknown. Linnaeus knew but one, Atherina hepsetus. Valenciennes in 1835 listed 28 species; Gunther in 1861 described but 38. Considering only the North and Middle American species, Jordan and Evermann in 1896 accepted 34. We now list 149 species and subspecies.

This revision of Bond's classic text is an introduction to the study of fishes for the general reader as well as for the college student. This text can be used for undergraduate courses in ichthyology or for fish sections of vertebrate biology courses. It provides an excellent background for the study of more advanced works on fishes.

In recent years, progress in fish biology has advanced at an unprecedented rate and has led to many breakthroughs in the field. This book provides a wealth of information on the strategies that fish adopt with respect to waters with markedly different physical and chemical characteristics. It shows how their physiology, behaviour and lifestyles are adapted to exploit particular niches and gives comprehensive insight into fish life under extreme conditions. The readers are introduced to the ways in which fish exemplify many phenomena of general biological interest - the existence of competitors, chaos, and predator-prey interaction. Fish pathology as well as the components of the immune system are addressed. In this book, original and at times controversial views are presented, areas which have so far received inadequate attention are highlighted and avenues for further research are suggested.

This special volume is dedicated to the contributions of women ichthyologists. Three colleagues were selected to represent all women ichthyologists, Ethelwynn Trewavas (ET), Rosemary Lowe-McConnell (Ro) and Eugenie Clark (Genie). All have had distinguished professional careers and have contributed in their own ways to their science. The career of each is highlighted by a personal interview with one of the editors of the volume, a bibliography of their lifetime publications, and a biography of their careers. Questions of historical inequities and current controversies in the treatment of women ichthyologists by their peers are raised and addressed by the women themselves. The personal and professional influences of these three women, and other women ichthyologists, are highlighted. A survey article by Pat Brown brings a number of women ichthyologists to the attention of a broader audience, and points the way for a more comprehensive historical consideration of the accomplishments and contributions of women ichthyologists. The volume continues with 16 solicited and contributed papers. ET's studies of taxonomy and life history are echoed in papers on the taxonomy and systematics of marine angelfishes, and of freshwater bitterlings, a review of reproduction in the North Atlantic ichthyofauna, and a comparison of reproductive styles and systematics of African minnows. Ro's studies on ecology, life history and behaviour are paralleled by papers on growth and metabolism in piranha, the community structure in tide pool fishes, and the social system and reproductive patterns in groupers. Genie's pioneering work on sexual roles and sex change, and her field studies of the behaviour of marine fishes are reflected in papers on gonadal structure and environmental sex determination in brook lamprey, sexual patterns in hawkfish, reproduction and systematics in phallostethids, gonadal structure and systematics in gobiids, reproductive and predator avoidance behaviour in razorfish, early ontogeny of an African mouth brooder, and alternative life histories in killifish.
