"An Introduction to the Study of Fishes" by Albert C. L. G. Günther is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work serves as a comprehensive guide to ichthyology, presenting key insights into the structure, classification, and life-history of fishes. It aims to cater to students and general zoologists, offering essential information for those observing fishes in their natural habitats. At the start of the book, the author outlines its scope, emphasizing the need for a concise account of the foundational facts of ichthyology. Günther mentions that previous resources were limited and discusses the importance of categorizing fishes through various attributes and characteristics. He introduces the concept of ichthyology and the book’s structure, which includes extensive discussions on the historical contributions to the field, starting from ancient scholars such as Aristotle and extending to more recent developments. The opening sets the stage for a detailed examination of the field of ichthyology, highlighting both the complexity and diversity of fish species. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
