Naga, 2003, vol. 26, issue 3, 27

Abstract: In this issue NAGA introduces a new page on profiles of fish species. This page will be a permanent feature of the NAGA and will be based on information derived from FishBase (http://www.fishbase.org), the worldÆs premier information system on fishes and a global public good. FishBase is being developed by the WorldFish Center and an International Consortium. The first species selected is the North African catfish Clarias gariepinus, one of the most important freshwater fish species in Africa. It has been chosen in honor of Prof Dr Guy Teugels of the MusΘe Royal de lÆAfrique Centrale (MRAC) of Tervuren, Belgium, who recently passed away and who spent many years investigating this species.
