This landmark scientific reference for scientists, researchers, and students of marine biology tackles the monumental task of taking a complete biodiversity inventory of the Gulf of Mexico with full biotic and biogeographic information. Presenting a comprehensive summary of knowledge of Gulf biota through 2004, the book includes seventy-seven chapters, which list more than fifteen thousand species in thirty-eight phyla or divisions and were written by 138 authors from seventy-one institutions in fourteen countries.

This first volume of Gulf of Mexico Origin, Waters, and Biota, a multivolumed set edited by John W. Tunnell Jr., Darryl L. Felder, and Sylvia A. Earle, provides information on each species' habitat, biology, and geographic range, along with full references and a narrative introduction to the group, which opens each chapter.

"This volume will become THE BIBLE for biota of the Gulf of Mexico for the next decade or two, and will be heavily used until another version is attempted, if ever. Felder, Camp, and Tunnell all richly deserve the accolades they will receive." --Thomas C. Shirley, Endowed Chair for Biodiversity and Conservation Science for the Harte Research Institute

"the first in a multivolume set, will be of great use to specialists who conduct environmental reseach in the Gulf of Mexico." -- S.R. Fegely, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

"The editing of the volume and quality of graphics are consistently good. Overall, this exhaustive effort will be of critical importance to a specic and limited audience........... Highly Recommended." -- S.R. Fegely, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
(Thomas C. Shirley )

". . . a landmark publication on the biodiversity of a body of water that is not only of regional but also of international importance ..." --Frank Truesdale
