Sharks, Rays, and Chimaeras of California: Volume 71 Paperback - 2003
by David Ebert; Mathew D. Squillante (Illustrator)
With lively and scientifically accurate writing, vibrant color photos, and clear maps and drawings, this guide is the only complete reference to the sharks, rays, and chimaeras found in California's waters--from the intertidal zone to 500 miles offshore. 200 illustrations.
First line
The order of cow and frilled sharks comprises two families, four genera, and five to six species of moderate-sized to very large sharks; both families three genera, and three species occur in California waters.
From the rear cover
"Ebert has herein assembled an enormous body of knowledge about California's 43 shark species ranging from shark and human behavior to taxonomic minutiae, along with up-to-date explanations of their ecology, status and fisheries. More importantly, his Herculean effort includes the often-overlooked 25 species of skates, rays and chimaeras. That, along with the fine illustrations of Mat Squillante, should answer any question that a student, diver, natural history buff, or recreational or commercial fisher might ask."--John E. McCosker, coauthor of Great White Shark
"The timing of this publication is ideal given the status of some of California's elasmobranch populations and the need for a deeper understanding of their biology, ecology, and fishery management. The book is a comprehensive treatment--if one wants to find out the latest information on any species of shark or ray off California, this is the place to go. An outstanding work!"--Gregor M. Cailliet, Professor, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, and Director, Pacific Shark Research Center
