Reef Fish Identification: Tropical Pacific

Took 15 days to deliver, but absolutely new, well packed, hence worth it. Love it! I waited a long time for this. Missing common species have been added.

Good pics n good to know the range of fish species.. a must havev reference on any divers bookshelf.

An excellent guide to efficiently identifying the fish of the area. I used it to help identify hundreds of photos I took off New Britain. The quick reference index in the back is especially helpful, and the grouping of fish that look similar is useful also – though in a couple of cases the fish are grouped by how they swim, i.e. with pectoral fins, and that isn't something that can be determined from static photos. There is good information for each species, including ID characteristics, range, habitat and depth information. The introductory family accounts are also quite informative. Sometimes my fish didn't really look quite like the photos, e.g. because it was in a life stage not illustrated. But that is going to be a limitation in any compact photo ID guide–a book that includes all the variation among fish would stretch multiple volumes.

Ein schönes Geschenk für Taucher und Fischliebhaber.Die Auswahl und die Infos sind enorm.Es gibt Infos zu Größe, Form, außergewöhnliche Merkmale, viele tolle farbige Abbildungen, Vorkommen, Haie, Rochen, Aale, Seepferdchen...Das Buch ist komplett auf Englisch aber allein durch die hunderte von Abbildungen kann man auch mit wenig Sprachkenntnissen viel lernen.
