درباره این کتاب:
The burbot
has a unique ecology as the only member of
the order of cod-like fishes found in
freshwater. It is the second most widely
distributed freshwater fish in the
Northern Hemisphere, variously threatened,
extinct or thriving across different parts
of this wide paleoarctic range. Burbot
were driven to extinction from Britain
most probably in the 1970s, the last
recorded specimen caught in 1969 in
Cambridgeshire. Particularly over the past
decade, a large body of work has addressed
potential reintroduction of the burbot to
Britain. The burbot’s diverse habitat and
other needs throughout its life stages
also mean that the species is a flagship
for a diversity of other wildlife of
restored river systems, and of the human
benefits that these ecosystems can
provide. Burbot is an excellent source for
all those involved in freshwater fish and
fisheries management, conservation and
exploitation.
