Need photos for my new book

Post by dogpuffer »

Dear all, I am hoping someone(s) may be able to help me. I am writing a new academic book of 'Mimicry, Camouflage, Masquerade and other Adaptive Resemblances" for Wiley, and i want to illustrate Canthigaster valentini and its putative Batesian mimic, Paraluteres prionurus

in relation to Caley MJ, Schluter D 2003 Predators favour mimicry in a tropical reef fish. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 270:667–672.

Also would like a pic of an uninflated and an inflated puffer.

I am affraind that Wiley won't pay and I will need a copyright permission form signing.

If anyone can help I greatly appreciate it

I do not have one of these types of puffer but a few members might...

Does this also need to be the Canthigaster valentini or will any species of puffer do?

Will the person at least get credit for their picture?
