This publication stands out from many others on fish conservation in that it deals exclusively with freshwater fish of European waters. 34 contributions offer up-to-date reviews on the conservation status of freshwater fish in 10 European countries and research results in genetics, systematics and ecology of more that 20 endangered European fish taxa. Selected examples show the changes in the fish communities of whole catchment areas under human influence in the past decades.Not only scientists in fish biology, but also fishery managers and hydraulic engineers will find new insights into the biology of endangered fish species and basic data in order to elaborate specific conservation measures for the local survival of these taxa
