The book entitled Fundamental of Ichthyology provides the various sections of the society associated with aquaculture with most recent information and further direction in this field. This is highly useful book which may serve the long felt needs of students, teachers and research scholars. We believe that this work will be of great use for fisheries under graduate and post-graduate students. Initial chapters deals with some basic aspects of culturable fishes whereas the middle segment of this book deals with nutritional aspects of fish culture and lastly this book through light on the various aspect of diseases management. Contents Chapter 1: Nature and Life of Fishes; Chapter 2: General Classification and Measurement of External Part of the Body of a Fish; Chapter 3: Classification, Habits and Habitat of Some Important Culturable Freshwater Fishes; Chapter 4: Examination of Gonads and Eggs of Culturable Fishes; Chapter 5: Identification of Fish Seed of Culturable Species of Fish from Pond (Spawn, Fry, Fingerlings); Chapter 6: Stocking of Spawn and Fry in Nursery Ponds; Chapter 7: Natural and Supplementary Feeds of Cultivable Fishes and Estimation of Feed Conversion Ration (FCR) and Food Conversion Efficiency (FER); Chapter 8: Feed and Nutritional Requirement of Pond Fishes; Chapter 9: Manuring and Fertilization of Nursery Ponds; Chapter 10: Various Types of Fish Ponds and the Implements Used in Fish Farming; Chapter 11: Various Aspects of Management Practices used in Fish Farming; Chapter 12: Common Aquatic Weeds of Freshwater Fish Ponds; Chapter 13: Control of the Common Aquatic Weeds of Freshwater; Chapter 14: Identification and Control of Aquatic Insects of Fish Ponds; Chapter 15: Heavy Metal Toxicity in Fishes; Chapter 16: Fish Production in Relation to Aquacultural Development in India: A Review; Chapter 17: Data Requirement for Planning and Management of Inland Fisheries; Chapter 18: Causes of Fishes Decline and Efforts for Revival and Statistics of Major Inland Fisheries; Chapter 19: Introduction to Various Fish Diseases; Chapter 20: Recent Diagnostic Method for Isolation and Identification of Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis Virus (IPNV); Chapter 21: Introduction to Freshwater Prawn (Scampi), Macrobrachium rosenbergii Diseases; Chapter 22: Ectoparasitic Diseases in Freshwater Fishes and their Control; Chapter 23 : Hazards of Fish Culture.

In recent years, progress in fish biology has advanced at an unprecedented rate and has led to many breakthroughs in the field. This book provides a wealth of information on the strategies that fish adopt with respect to waters with markedly different physical and chemical characteristics. It shows how their physiology, behaviour and lifestyles are adapted to exploit particular niches and gives comprehensive insight into fish life under extreme conditions. The readers are introduced to the ways in which fish exemplify many phenomena of general biological interest - the existence of competitors, chaos, and predator-prey interaction. Fish pathology as well as the components of the immune system are addressed. In this book, original and at times controversial views are presented, areas which have so far received inadequate attention are highlighted and avenues for further research are suggested.

"This new and comprehensive treatment of the field of ichthyology, the first American effort in more than half a century, is intended as an introduction to the subject. It covers virtually every aspect of the science of fishes: how they are built; how they function; how they react to one another and to their environment; what principles govern their distribution; how characteristics are passed from parents to offspring; how they are classified, and how diverse and numerous they are; how they have evolved; and how they reproduce, feed, and grow. Considerable effort has been made by the authors to render "Ichthyology" useful to the reader lacking in the technical background. Scientific words are defined and scientific names of fishes are used throughout only in conjunction with English names. A large number of illustrations, many by the well known scientific illustrator, William Brudon, are included to help clarify the text" -- Book Jacket.

Ichthyology is a branch of zoology which is concerned with the study of fishes, their biology, structure, organs and discovering their species. It includes species like chondrichthyes the cartilaginous fish, jawless fish i.e. agnatha, and bony fish i.e osteichthyes. There are approximately 33,400 species of fishes being studied under ichthyology. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of this field. Such selected concepts that redefine ichthyology have been presented in this text. It unfolds the innovative aspects of this area which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this textbook.
