Oh my goodness! Unless you are a Tree of Life developer, you really shouldn't be here. This page is part of our beta test site, where we develop new features for the ToL, often messing up a thing or two in the process. Please visit the official version of this page, which is available here.

Note

This page contains the references of all papers including original descriptions of all callichthyid taxa listed in the Complete Catalogue of species. It is intended to be complete and includes all papers published up to September, 1995. I would appreciate notice of any errors and omissions that you may find. Thank you.
