Fish of the Mediterranean

The Mediterranean Sea is one of the most biodiverse and captivating bodies of water on Earth — and this book brings it to life like never before. Through stunning illustrated plates, readers of all ages explore an underwater world teeming with fish, gorgonians, corals, molluscs, sea urchins, starfish, crustaceans and the sweeping posidonia meadows that carpet the seabed.

Dedicated spreads cover the main underwater habitats — seagrass meadows, rocky reefs and caves — making species identification both visually engaging and easy to grasp. Special sections explore the history of the Mediterranean and the biological factors that make it so unique, providing scientific depth without ever feeling dry. It works just as well as a classroom resource as it does as an enjoyable read at home.
