Dear all,
Although my collection of the above mentionned family is quite extensive
already, the information on these beauties is scarce. I'm on the lookout for
copies of publications, both recent as old ones, on both fossil as well as
recent Tonnidae. Of course the specimens, recent as well as fossil, are also
welcome.
Tuns are a taxonomical mess, and I have this idea in my head that I can clear
it out, for that however, I need as many of the old publications I can get a
hold of;
Thanks in advance,
Chris
