Tarpons: Biology, Ecology, Fisheries

This book is the latest and most thorough text on the biology, ecology, and fisheries (sport and commercial) of tarpons. The chapters comprise clear, intricate discourses on such subjects as early development and metamorphosis, population genetics, anatomical and physiological features and adaptations, migrations, reproductive biology, and culminate with a concise overview of the world’s tarpon fisheries. A comprehensive appendix includes Spotte’s original translations of important papers published previously by others in Spanish and Portuguese and unavailable until now to English readers.
