The Bichir Handbook is a book written by science communicator and graphic designer Joshua Pickett from Salisbury, England,[1] about living fossil fishes known as Polypteriformes (bichirs), found throughout west and central Africa, and formerly South America. In the book, Pickett describes all extant Polypteridae, and details extinct species with illustrated reconstructions.[2] The book was designed by the author and illustrated by paleoartist Dorian Noël.[3]

The author includes commentaries from Polypterus researcher, Emily M. Standen, and former editor of the Journal of Fish Biology, Olaf L. F. Weyl.[4]
