"In coopertion with Voluntary Service Overseas, UK"--T.p. verso.
This guide is intended for the nonspecialist who needs to identify different families of fish either for work or for pleasure. Those involved in coastal zone management, such as members of local communities, fisherfolk, NGOs, and government organizations, or virtually anyone who has an interest in the environment will find this book helpful. The aim is to enable those without a scientific background to accurately identify fishes, to become familiar with using scientific names and to learn why fishes look and behave as they do. The book will also be helpful in setting up monitoring programs, analyzing the data obtained from surveys in community -based marine reserves and fishery grounds and writing survey reports. Also include glossary, bibliography and index (general index and species index.).
