Course Description:
Ichthyology is the scientific study of fishes. This includes morphology, physiology, and ecology of freshwater and marine fishes. Structure, function, evolution, and behavior of fish are discussed as adaptations to the environment. Laboratory exercises are designed to provide the student with the opportunity to explore the internal and external morphology of fishes, to observe common behavior, and to practice taxonomic identification of fishes using dichotomous keys.
