The group is found in most freshwaters and shallow saltwater bodies around the world. Its extraordinary evolutionary and biogeographic pathways leave many open questions on its origin and large diversification that make its study a complex subject, yet a fascinating field for research. Catfishes, a Highly Diversified Group is divided in two volumes. Volume 1 (\u003cem\u003eTheir Outstanding Biology\u003c\/em\u003e; 14 chapters) aims to rectify the incomplete information on the enormous morphological diversity of the group, special habits and adaptations to specific environments, and morpho-functional characteristics of the catfishes. Volume 2 (\u003cem\u003eEvolution and Phylogeny\u003c\/em\u003e; 18 chapters) deals with evolutionary mechanisms and major evolutionary trends within Siluriformes, investigating new avenues concerning fossil and extant catfishes and relationships within and among families, using morphological and molecular evidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gloria Arratia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 103244861X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032448619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.88d","brand":"Gloria Arratia","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48089392709887,"sku":"9781032448619","price":220.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e36b554b-8a4d-4d0e-a239-68b2f3544684.jpg?v=1769109967","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/catfishes-a-highly-diversified-group-gloria-arratia-9781032448619","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
