Overview

Excerpt from A Descriptive Catalog of the Shore Fishes of Peru An effort was made to make the catalog so complete that no other books will be required for the identification of the shore fishes of Peru. The general biologist, who will want to identify fishes occasionally, the beginner, and the especially interested layman have always been kept in mind, and for them the work was made as simple as possible. Technical terms were avoided, if practicable. Definitions of the ones used are supplied (see p. And most of the external characters commonly mentioned in descriptions are illustrated and named in figure 3. The use of internal characters, especially in the keys, was avoided as far as practical to eliminate the necessity of dissections. In brief, the catalog is intended to provide practical yet scientifically accurate means for the identification of the fishes in the area included.
