Offshore cichlids of Lake Malawi
by George F. Turner
This book, the first ever guide to the cichlid fishes
of the offshore waters of Lake Malawi, shows that this habitat harbours
a great diversity of little-known cichlid species. Aquarists will be fascinated
by the wealth of previously-unknown brilliantly-coloured and bizarrely-shaped
species. Information on distinguishing features, colour, size, distribution
and abundance, commercial importance, diet, reproduction, and taxonomy
are given for 199 species, 79 of which are presently undescribed.
186 colour and 44 black and white photographs illustrate
all species.
