The shelf of the Pacific Ocean occupies 5.7%, the continental slope 12.2%, and the ocean floor 82% of the entire ocean area. Taxonomically the ichthyofauna of the Pacific Ocean is richer than that of other oceans. About 25 families of fishes inhabit only the Pacific Ocean, about 35 families inhabit both the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The study is based on recent VITYAZ' collections and data discussed in Soviet and foreign literature. There are two major components of the pelagic ichthyofauna inhabiting the Pacific Ocean: the epipelagic group inhabiting the subsurface water layer to a depth of 100-200m, and the deepwater group inhabiting the deep and bottom water layers. The first part of the book discusses the epipelagic fishes and the second part discusses the bathypelagic fishes. (Author).

QLD Premier's Book Awards -- Shortlisted Science Writer Award Awarded a 2010 Whitley Certificate of Commendation for Natural History The largest, swiftest, highest-leaping, fastest-growing and most migratory fishes on the planet all live in the open ocean. Beautifully adapted to their world, they range from tiny drift fish and slow plankton-straining whale sharks to high-energy, streamlined predators such as tuna and marlin. Fishes of the Open Ocean, from Julian Pepperell, one of Australia's best-known marine biologists and world authority on oceanic fishes, is the first book to describe these fishes and detail their biology and the complex, often fragile world in which they live. This unique guide covers all major species including tuna, marlin, swordfish and pelagic sharks, as well as lesser-known ones such as flying fish, lancetfish, sunfish, pomfret, opah, louvar, fanfish and basking sharks.

“These attractive, pocket-sized guides for fish watchers have been carefully written by Goodson and profusely illustrated in striking water colors by Phillip Weisgerber. Although designed for divers, fishers, aquarists and other nonprofessionals, these little books will undoubtedly find their way on to the shelves of many ichthyologists who will value them as quick references and for providing life-like, color renditions of many fish species found in American coastal waters.”—Copeia “Goodson’s guidebook is designed for the fishwatcher—whether skin or scuba diver, fisherman, aquarist, schoolchild or casual tourist exploring the shore—who seeks to know more about our marine life.”—Palos Verdes Peninsula News
