TY - JOUR AB - THE Asiatic Expeditions of the American Museum of Natural History have brought together general collections of freshwater fishes from representative localities in China, and this monograph by Dr. Tread-well Nichols, curator of recent fishes, reports on these collections. The scope of this most useful work is, however, much greater than this. Its aim is a comprehensive review of the freshwater fishes of China proper, and it should serve as a handbook to the subject. Outlying territories such as Manchuria and Mongolia are not included. China proper is more or less of a unit faunal area which may be divided into smaller areas and sub-areas. The freshwater fishes are separated into north-central and southern sub-faunas having a standard climatic zonal basis.
