California is a fascinating place for the student of fish ecology, zoogeography and evolution. The state contains all or part of six large drainage systems and many subsystems, each with its own endemic fish fauna; this natural diversity of fishes is further augmented by the presence of many exotic species introduced from other parts of the world. Much of the information contained here is derived from unpublished observations by the author and other biologists, as well as from obscure theses and reports. Dr. Moyle has made a special effort to note topics in need of further research, hoping to stimulate interest in them before more species become rare, endangered or extinct.
 6.5 x 9 inches, has 405 pages with index and references. It is illustrated with 134 in-text line-art drawings.

Inland Fishes of California

By Dr..Peter B. Moyle

Here for the first time is a comprehensive study of the inland fishes of California. It provides biologists, students and amateur naturalists with a survey of the information available on natural history, identification, and management of a rapidly changing fish fauna. Serious anglers will find the book indispensable for an understanding of the habits and behavior of game fish—where to look for certain species, their feeding and breeding habits, average and record sizes, preferred depths, and major identifying features.

The book opens with an overview of the biology and status of inland fish fauna, including surveys of distribution and zoogeography, ecology and change. Following that are short chapters on anatomical structures of fishes and major identifying features. Technical keys for the identification of all species are then provided.

This book is in good condition with a slight amount of wear to the binding. It measures 8.5 x 11 inches, has 854 pages with glossary. It is profusely illustrated with range maps and line drawings or black & white photographs

ATLAS OF NORTH AMERICAN FRESHWATER FISHES   

Edited by David S. Lee et al.

This atlas attempts to summarize available distributional information on all the freshwater fishes of the United States and Canada, and to provide some information on their biology. Although the many needs for such a volume have long been obvious, only in the last few years has a work of this nature been feasible. The large number of regional faunal works that have recently appeared, the publication of cumulative locality records, and the expansion of museum and other ichthyological collections provide extensive and reasonably complete data for most North American species. Thus, a "first approximation" atlas is now possible.
The desirability of this compilation is perhaps best attested to by the large number of individuals from many agencies and institutions in both countries who volunteered their services to make it a reality. Probably no other single zoological work has been so willingly supported by such a wide spectrum of enthusiastic contributors. We anticipate that the atlas will be useful in studies of biogeography, systematics, and ecology, and to persons involved in fisheries management and environmental assessment. It should also be quite important to educators, and to fishermen and general outdoorsmen in the United States and Canada.
