Annual fishes provide a unique opportunity to serve as a model organism for studies in vertebrate biology, such as behavior, sexual selection, molecular evolution, evolution of morphological traits, speciation, population dynamics, competition, reproductive strategies, regulation of developmental mechanisms, evo-devo studies and senescence. Currently, no single book reviews the status of our knowledge of annual fishes. This book fills that void, covering the life cycle of annual fishes, their reproductive and evolutionary biology, ecology, reproductive behavior and sexual selection.
