Jason Alder also has fingering charts available for B-flat clarinet and contrabass clarinet.

From the author:

"Ten years have passed since releasing the 2nd Edition of my Bass Clarinet Quarter-Tone Fingering Chart, and in that time I have seen its popularity grow enormously. Many people have relied on it for their fingerings, university clarinet teachers are using it in their studios, and the chart and fingering diagram have been cited in numerous papers and publications. In that time, I have also released two editions of a quarter-tone chart for clarinet with a third releasing simultaneously to this one, and most recently a compilation of three separate charts for Leblanc, Selmer, and Eppelsheim contrabass clarinets.

The first obvious change in the 3rd Edition is to the title. I have added Altissimo to better reflect that these charts are not only useful for their quarter-tones, but also for their stratospheric range. The charts have also had a formatting revision and are now being published through AMA Editions, available in print as well as digital forms.

The next big change is the addition of 138 quarter-tone and altissimo fingerings, and some corrections and revisions to the existing ones. With these revisions come some new notations of the diagrams. One of these is the use of grey-colored keys, first used in the contrabass clarinet charts, to indicate keys which may be added to help tuning, response, and/or resonance. Rather than creating a new diagram for every possible combination, I thought it would be more effective to show the fundamental fingering in black, with the grey keys as possible additions dependent on what works best for a player and their instrument.

My original charts were made using a Buffet Prestige bass clarinet, but I have since changed to a Selmer Privilege instrument. One particular difference with this instrument is the articulated C♯/G♯ mechanism, which does not allow the key to open when either of the first two fingers of the right hand are down. Some of the fingering additions were to accommodate instruments with an articulated mechanism, and previous fingerings that will not work on instruments with one have been marked as such. The biggest obstacle with this mechanism is for written C4-quarter-sharp, which has no suitable alternative. Another difference is with the thumb key configuration. On the Buffet Prestige and many other instruments, the top key is an alternate for low D3, whereas on a Selmer Privilege and Buffet Tosca it is an alternate for low E♭3. While it’s not possible to cater to every different keywork layout configuration, I decided to remove fingerings which use this key in favor of those using an alternate one."

Do not recommend
Edible, though barely. Definitely the worst tasting oysters I've tried of all the brands. Hopefully I don't get food poisoning as has been reported by other reviewers.

High quality product.
Warmth? I’m not sure what that means. I make a simple dish out of these, some milk, butter and salt and pepper—then I “warm” it up. They’re a little pricey but the quality and taste/flavor is great. I would definitely buy them again.

Good and can be used in many dishes.
These are pretty good mussels they have not been smoked or anything added to it but mussels, water and salt. Since they are packed like that, you can use them in a variety of dishes. I would buy them again but only when they're on sale because they are pricey.

Meaty and flavorful
I ate these straight from the tin at room temperature, sometimes sopping up the extra liquid with decent bread. I purchased these because I wanted to try an alternative to the King Oscar. I've tried a couple different kinds of mackerel over the years, and while the King Oscar has been the best I find their olive oil varieties to be a bit acrid. Not so with these Otter Kingdom fillets. Theses are actual fillets, so they are larger and meatier, and in my experience they have a looser grain than the mackerel I'm used to. They are high-quality, so I'm not detecting any bones and there's no formaldehyde-flavor, no imperfections in the cut. The oil is quite thin/watery and fairly small in volume. This isn't an issue for me, if anything I'd say it's welcome as it doesn't overpower the fish. These make a great compliment to my tinned fish rotation, which includes tuna, squid/octopus, sardines, cod liver, oysters, and sometimes sprats, salmon, and trout. The price is better than King Oscar, so I can have it more regularly without feeling like I'm being immoderate. Would recommend.
