Excerpt from The Fishes of the Groups Elasmobranchii, Holocephali, Isospondyli, and Ostarophysi Obtained by the United States Bureau of Fisheries Steamer "Albatros" In 1907 to 1910, Chiefly in the Philippine Island and Adjacent SeasThis is the sixth volume I have prepared dealing with a study of the fishes collected by the United States Bureau of Fisheries steamer Albatross in the Philippines. Since the fifth volume completed the main percoid series, the present work is somewhat of a departure, dealing with primitive fishes and following through the various groups of living forms to the more generalized bony fishes.Most of the localities recorded herein relate to the Philippines, but other regions where the Albatross cruised, as the Netherlands Indies, China, Formosa, and parts of Oceania, also are listed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
