This book serves as a comprehensive guide to beach spawning, a charismatic animal behavior that is seen in a surprising number of teleost species. This unexpected form of reproduction provides a window into the ecology of coastal areas, the behaviors and physiology necessary for fish and their eggs to adapt to terrestrial conditions, and the threats and challenges for conservation and management. Beach spawning species include important forage fish such as the Capelin, exotic fisheries such as the Fugu Puffer, and the spectacular midnight runs of the California Grunion.
Beach-spawning fishes from exotic locations on most continents of the world provide spectacular examples of extreme adaptations during the most vulnerable life cycle stages. The beauty, intriguing biology, and importance of these charismatic fishes at the interface of marine and terrestrial ecosystems have inspired numerous scientific studies. Adaptations of behavior, physiology, development, and ecology are gathered together for the first time in this book.
