References

By

Mike Wise, ASG Tech. Ed.

The following list contains around 800 references to books and articles relating to Neotropical and West African dwarf cichlids. Many of the most recent references are not listed here yet. I will continue adding

new references on a quarterly basis as I update my own personal database. I will be happy to hear from members who would be willing to add new references to the library. Species names with a (+) indicate

that this publication is the original scientific or hobby description for that particular species.
