Field Guide to Common Marine Fishes and Invertebrates of Alaska

With color photographs and descriptions of more than 400 marine species, this guide makes it easy to identify common Alaska fish and invertebrates. The waterproof book is valuable for at-sea biologists and technicians doing fisheries surveys, and also is useful to fishers, teachers, and anyone who wants to know what they've caught or what an animal looks like. The primary geographic range is the eastern Bering Sea, central Aleutian Islands, and western and central Gulf of Alaska, and also includes waters north of Norton Sound and in southeastern Alaska. As research biologists at the Alaska Department of Fish and Game in Kodiak, authors Byersdorfer and Watson have studied Alaska biota for several decades.
