From the giant sturgeon of the Danube to the tiny bleak of England's chalk streams, the freshwater of Europe supports a multitude of fish species. This guide is a reference for those who want to identify any of the continent's plethora of piscatorial life. In addition to the book's 400 colour artworks, a standard dichotomous system is employed to aid identification. There is also information on the ecology, reproduction, distribution and commercial value of each species.
