Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Phillip and Ramnarine's book is, as its title indicates, an illustrated guide that covers all of the freshwater fish of Trinidad and Tobago. It contains forty colour photographs, and an adequate description of each fish. Moreover, it also contains one key to identify the families and a second to identify the genera and species of the fish. I have not yet had the opportunity to test these keys, but they appear to be simple and straightforward to use.
