HOW TO USE THE BIBLIOGRAPHY 



Each of the 1,814 references in this bibliography has been 

 numbered. All references are listed alphabetically. The author, 

 fish family, species, and hybrid indexes are listed alphabetically, 

 regardless of systematic position or status of the family, species, 

 or hybrid. Each reference was read in its entirety and all species 

 or crosses therein are noted (rather than that which may be 

 stated only in the title). Common names are interspersed 

 alphabetically within the appropriate species or hybrid listings. 

 Where recent papers were located or appeared in the literature, 

 as the final typing was in preparation, 22 cases, the reference 

 was given the next sequential number followed by an "a," etc. 

 and inserted in the proper alphabetical position in the citation 

 sections (i.e., 1221a follows 1221). Since this bibliography was 

 so large and computer developed, merging the entries from four 

 separate computer sources often prevented the desired sequen- 

 tial numerical order to the citations which, however, are listed 

 alphabetically throughout. Thus, 23 numbers, 27, 47, 49, 55, 67, 

 69, 77, 305, 340, 368, 403, 877a, 891, 1,000, 1,183, 1,186, 1,421, 

 1,450, 1,571, 1,586, 1,665, 1,715, and 1,766 are missing as a 

 result of deletion of duplicated citations which had entered the 

 various files. 



To use the bibliography when the author of a hybrid is 

 known, proceed directly to the citation or author section to 

 learn what papers have been included under his or her name. If 

 one knows the author only, proceed to the author section and 

 find (i.e., F. Anders published 45 papers) each of the numbered 

 papers that he authored or coauthored. Knowing the fish family 

 but not the author, etc., a check of that section will steer you to 

 all papers dealing with hybrids known for that family (i.e., 

 Cyprinidae, etc.). Likewise, if one knows F. Anders published a 

 paper on swordtail-platyfish hybrids, go to the species or cross 

 or author list to locate the species, remembering that if a tax- 

 onomic change has taken place the original generic notation will 

 be found (i.e., presently Poecilia for Molliensia of earlier 

 references). I must reemphasize that one should check all possi- 

 ble spelling combinations for an author or species name before 

 being satisfied all references have been located. 



If a hybrid cross acted as a species in a cross then that hybrid 

 cross was included in the species list. This prevailed with F, and 

 F 2 back crosses (i.e., ((Salmo alpinus x S. fontinalis) x S. fon- 

 tinalis) x S. fontinalis) where each species was listed in addition 

 to (S. alpinus x S. fontinalis) which was acting as a species in 

 the species listing. Likewise, each hybrid cross has not been 

 reversed in the hybrid cross section, unless attempted by the 

 author (i.e., S. alpinus x S. fontinalis would not be listed for a 

 pertinent reference unless the author attempted S. fontinalis x 

 S. alpinus and S. alpinus x S. fontinalis crosses). 



Readers wishing information regarding the listed references 

 can correspond with me as about 95% are within my holdings as 

 originals, Xerox, or photocopies. 



ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 



I would like to single out several people who were most in- 

 strumental in aiding with this bibliography. To David Harris of 

 Atlantic Analysis Corporation, Norfolk, Va., fell the enormous 

 task to develop a computer program that would treat the hun- 

 dreds of entries that are included herein. This was achieved by 

 use of two Hewlett Packard 9830's sorting four computer disks 

 simultaneously and 15 programs. His diligence in resolving the 



myriads of program problems and aspects relating to informa- 

 tion retrieval were tremendous. Helen Nearing was responsible 

 for all program operations. She, along with Carolyn Morgan, 

 deciphered all my raw hand scribbles onto standard input sheets 

 prior to computer analysis. Helen Nearing, Janice Manyak, and 

 Jacqueline Tate were instrumental in checking and verifying all 

 information once out of the computer prior to final preparation 

 and entry into an IBM System 6 Information Processor. Brenda 

 Bright of the Institute of Marine Sciences spent many hours 

 locating and requesting many of the references herein. The staff 

 of Wilson Library main campus, University of North Carolina, 

 were especially helpful with Russian citations and their location. 

 Use of many other Institute of Marine Sciences, Morehead City, 

 N.C., facilities is also acknowledged. 



Others who were exceptional in their help to locate or supply 

 me with references were: J. Atz, American Museum of Natural 

 History; C. Atkinson, Seattle, Wash.; E. Crossman, Toronto, 

 Canada; F. Anders and J. and Ursula Vielkind, Germany; T. 

 Abe and T. Terao, Japan; O. Oliva, Czechoslovakia; Olga 

 Matlak, Poland; P. Banarescu, Romania; G. Svardson, 

 Sweden; and S. Segerstrale, Finland. 



I bear full responsibility for errors or omissions that may have 

 crept into this publication. May this compilation be a stimulus 

 and aid to your studies of fish hybrids. Where I have missed 

 citations I hope you will call them to my attention. 



Appreciation is also extended to the following who assisted in 

 various ways with the literature research and retrieval. I hope I 

 have neglected no one.
