Abstract
The bibliography brings together more than 1600 references, of which more than 1400 are abstracted, pertaining to the fish and wildlife resources of Galveston Bay, Texas. Included are references concerned with all aspects of the ecology of the Galveston Bay System, including the Houston Ship Channel, Trinity Bay, East Bay, West Bay, the San Jacinto River, and all major tributaries. Also included are references about upland areas adjacent to Galveston Bay in Harris, Chambers and Galveston counties as well as the marine environment offshore of Galveston Bay to the minus 60 foot contour in the Gulf of Mexico. The references span the period from the late 19th century to 1978 and range from site-specific impact studies to regional field guides for the identification of organisms likely to occur in the Galveston Bay area. Reports of laboratory studies which bear on the ecology of Galveston Bay are included.
