Reproductive Biology and Early Life History of Fishes in the Ohio River Drainage (Electronic book text)

This new seven-volume series is the most extensive treatise on early life histories of the freshwater fishes of North America. It represents the state-of-the-art in fishery biology and provides a systematic approach to the study of early life histories of all the fishes in this region. Each volume contains distinguishing characteristics and a pictorial guide to the families of fishes in the OR Drainage, followed by chapters on the families. This series fills a gap in the literature by providing information on the spawning habitat requirements, reproductive behavior, and ecological relationships during the first few months of life for most species.
