Beschreibung
Marine Fauna Helmut Göthel ULMERS NATURE GUIDE depicts the world of animals and plants in a convincing, easy-to-understand and extremely practical format. The Red Sea, eastern Africa and the islands of the Indian Ocean, especially the Maldives, are the most popular marine regions suitable for diving, with tropical coral reefs. In particular, the abundance of colourful coral fish attracts divers and snorklers alike. In most cases, however, it is hard to find information on the correct scientific names of these fish, or, for that matter, information on their behaviour and life in the wild. A good enough reason to describe and illustrate the most common, attractive and interesting fish, a total of more than 390 species, in this colour compendium. All the most essential information, such as identification characteristics, how some species can be confused with others, habitats, life in the wild and biology, as well as advice on aquarium keeping, are given in this book.
