Animal Homing

Part of the book series: Chapman & Hall Animal Behaviour Series ((CHABS))

Abstract

Fishes are the most speciose group of vertebrates and display a extraordinary variety of life history patterns. Many fish species are migratory, particularly those larger than about 60 cm (Roff, 1988). Fishes may migrate from marine feeding areas to spawn in freshwater (anadromy; e.g. shad, salmon, striped bass, lamprey). Others, such as eels, rear in freshwater but return to the sea to spawn and are termed catadromous. There are also species, referred to as amphidromous, which migrate between fresh- and saltwater for purposes other than reproduction. Based on present information, McDowall (1988) listed 110 anadromous species, 56 catadromous species and 61 amphidromous species.
