Default common vs scientific names

Nicole wrote in message . ..
Does anyone know of a site that gives common and scientific names of
Central/SA cichlids? I am new to cichlids. The b/f has had them
before but he wasn't very precise about them. We have had several of
them for a month or two now, and I have a book with the scientific
names, but it doesn't give any of the common ones. And it's not like
every fish looks just like the pictures the book has. :-)

TIA,
Nicole


I like to use Fishbase -- http://www.fishbase.org/search.cfm

You can find the scientific names using the common names, and vicey-versey
