Ethiopia is endowed with several water bodies that contain a high diversity of aquatic fauna. This book contains the diversity and relative abundance of fish species of the Baro and Tekeze drainage basins, Ethiopia. Fish identification was done to species level by comparing the specimens using meristic and morphometric characters with taxonomic keys. 9 orders, 20 families, 43 genera and 59 species were identified from the two basins.

I have born in 1982 at Debra Elias from my father Merigeta Melak Tadesse and my mother Shigult Mekonnen. My elementary and high school was there. My first and second degrees were owned from AAU in Biology and fisheries and aquatic science respectively. Now I am working at Bahir Dar University. I am interested in studying any aspect of fish.
