The waters of Tennessee are home to about three hundred species of fishes, the most diverse collection of freshwater fauna of any state in the country. This readable & authoritative book, first published in 1993, examines that diversity within the state's complex natural history. It not only synthesizes a wealth of scientific information but also presents a tremendous amount of original research. Species accounts provide information on the classification, identification, biology, distribution, taxonomy, & current status of Tennessee's fishes--many of which are endangered. Taxonomic keys provide readers with guides for distinguishing species. Extensive use is made of high-quality photographs, range maps, & drawings. For this second printing, the authors have provided corrections & updated information. This data includes seven new species accounts & new distributional information.… (lisätietoja)
