The Persian Gulf is today home to 31 native and 10 alien species of freshwater fishes. This comprehensive field guide, the first of its kind, provides detailed and illustrated information about the little known and often ignored Arabian freshwater fish fauna. It is intended to enlighten and appeal to both scientific professionals and non-specialists alike. Freshwater Fishes of the Arabian Peninsula addresses important issues surrounding those species, such as taxonomic relationships, distribution and population trends, as well as their gross morphology, identifying features, diet, behaviour and breeding biology. This book is a must-have guide for naturalists, conservationists and citizen scientists based in the Arabian region who are keen to discover which fishes occur in their area, and for professionals and amateurs everywhere who are interested in the biodiversity of Arabia and the biodiversity and evolution of freshwater fishes in general. The practical information contained in this volume about field and laboratory techniques relating to freshwater fish also makes it a valuable resource for individuals studying and working more broadly in wetland and species conservation and land use management. Freshwater Fishes of the Arabian Peninsula is co-authored by Jörg Freyhof, Johannes Els, Gary R. Feulner, Nashat A. Hamidan and Friedhelm (Fareed) Krupp, all scientific researchers and naturalists with expertise in fish studies (ichthyology) as well as general biology, ecology and conservation, and with many decades of combined experience in Arabia.
