Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Fresh-Water Fishes Further: no satisfactory understanding of the fauna, or any class in the fauna, Of any country can be had unless it is viewed in relation to that of the rest of the world. This is of special importance in dealing with fresh-water fishes, because, severely circumscribed by the limits of the medium in which they exist, the question constantly arises, How did such-and such a species get into certain rivers and not into others For example, the significance of the presence of the burbot in rivers running eastward in England, its absence from those running westward, cannot be appreciated unless the affinities of that fish are understood. When it is explained that the burbot is the only member of the great Cod Family known to inhabit fresh water, that it abounds in the rivers of Central and Northern Europe, as well as those of North America, a good deal of light is thrown upon the former connection of the streams of Eastern England with the great watershed of the Rhine. Here, again, is the need for scientific as well as for popular names. The burbot is a cod, but the great Murray cod of Southern Australia is not a cod at all, but a perch.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the Marine and Fresh Water Fishes of the British Islands: Including an Enumeration of Every Species This handbook has at the same time been compiled with the view of providing a complete reference catalogue or index to the fine series of spirit-preserved British marine and freshwater fishes collected by Dr. Francis Day, which after exhibition in their present position in the East Quadrant will be given to the nation, and placed perma hently on view in the Buckland Fish Museum. This museum, it is hopefully anticipated, will on the close of the Exhibition be enriched by many kindred acquisitions. As will be observed, the numbers quoted in these pages in con secutive order after the popular and technical titles of each fish, coincide with the same numbers inscribed on the labels attached to the j ars which contain the above-named fish collection, while an extended special description of the individual specimens thus exhibited is frequently given in the text. In like manner, by way of exemplifying certain rare forms, not in the Day Collection, and the larger sizes to which our indigenous fishes not unfrequently attain, reference is constantly made to the magnificent series of coloured plaster casts prepared by the late Mr. F rank Buckland, and to the many preserved specimens contained in the Buckland Museum, now thrown open to the public in conjunction with the Exhibition Courts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fresh-Water Fishes of Europe: A History of Their Genera, Species, Structure, Habits, and Distribution Shortcomings of omission of some species, almost inevitable in a work of this kind, may be remedied hereafter. But we trust that the fabric of the work will give a new interest to the Fishes of our own country, and may influence British peoples to a thrifty cultivation of the roving wealth which swims, little heeded, in our forms of fresh-water fish life - a cultivation like that which rewards the folk who breed and care for, and feed upon the Fresh-water Fishes of Continental Europe.

That done, they are no longer the concern of the biologist, for the problems of their transport inland then occupy the legislator on other grounds.

This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Reptiles, Amphibians, and Fresh-Water Fishes It is hoped that this third volume of "The Abbey Nature Books" will be no less popular than the preceding volumes devoted to British Mammals and British Birds. A feature of this third book in the series is that practically every species included is illustrated, and these illustrations, together with the descriptive matter, will, it is hoped, result in more attention being paid to these classes of animals than heretofore. The Author has to acknowledge his indebtedness to Mr. Frank Gibson's "Superstitions about Animals," and to Mr. C. Tate Regan's admirable book on "The Fresh-Water Fishes of the British Isles," to which the reader is confidently referred for more detailed information concerning the third class of animals included in this volume.

This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fresh Water Fishes of New England and Those Ascending the Streams From the Sea Full-grown fishes have generally some distinct marks by which they can be recognized with certainty. It is not so easy with the young, which often differ greatly from the old ones in shape as well as in color and markings. Their eyes are proportionately larger, their bodies slimmer (see drawing of silvery ishiners). Young salmon have black crossbars like yellow perch. Etc., etc. Males and females often differ greatly, particularly in the spring. In examining a young fish, compare the fins with the description in the key. This will lead to a cer tain group of fishes; and if the specimen is not readily found among them, examine the shape and position of the mouth, the shape of the gill covers, and the size of the scales; find by measurement how many times the length of the head and the depth of the body are contained in the length of the fish; then compare the specimen in these respects with the drawing of the fish most like it in other particulars. The Latin names of fishes have often been changed. The names here used are taken from Prof. D. S. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to the British Fresh-Water Fishes Exhibited in the Department of Zoology, British Museum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London, S. W This family includes about twenty species from the coasts and rivers of all temperate regions; some of these feed in the sea, but all breed in fresh water. The Lampreys resemble Eels in form, but differ from them widely in structure; the most notable external differences from other fishes are that the mouth is surrounded by an expanded circular lip, the suctorial disc, which bears horny teeth, and that there is a series of seven small gill-openings on each Side. There are no jaws, but there is a very muscular protrusible tongue, also furnished with horny teeth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
