Beginning with an introduction to the systematics of fishes, this book goes on to discuss topics including: swimming and buoyancy mechanisms; the inner ear and lateral lines; electrosensation; anatomy and the physiology of the cardiovascular system; and osmoregulation.
The Physiology of Fishes is a comprehensive, state-of-the-art volume covering most aspects of fish physiology. The book begins with an introduction to the systematics of fishes, followed by two chapters that discuss swimming and buoyancy mechanisms important in movement and maintaining position in the water column. Four chapters are devoted to the inner ear and lateral line, electrosensation, vision, and chemoreception. International contributions from leading experts cover the anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular system and the gill, the control of these systems by the autonomic nervous system, osmoregulation, acid-base regulation, ammonia and urea metabolism and excretion, thermoregulation, endocrine control, and reproduction. The final chapter of the book examines the morphology and physiology of coloration in fishes.
