Lake Tanganyika and Its Life

by G. W. Coulter (editor)

This is the first comprehensive account of the one of the world's most remarkable lakes, drawing together much scattered and hard-to-access knowledge. The history of the lake, its hydrodynamics, extensive chemistry, and flora and fauna are among the areas examined. Particular attention is paid to the development and descriptions of the pelagic and benthic fish communities. Researchers will find the comprehensive bibliography a useful source of information.
