In this comprehensive scientific guide to the fishes found in the oceans around southern Africa, Professor Margaret Smith, widow of Professor J.L.B. Smith, in collaboration with Dr Phillip Heemstra, has organised and motivated a team of 72 distinguished ichthyologists from 15 different countries to provide this unique, authoritative and superbly illustrated work of reference. Smiths' Sea Fishes provides the means of identifying all the fishes known to occur in these waters. Diagnostic features, size and distribution are given for every species. Of the 2.150 species described, over 1.500 are illustrated in full-colour, thus making positive recognition extremely easy.
