Cerdale is a genus of wormfishes native to the western Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Pacific Ocean. [1]
There are currently five recognized species in this genus: [1]
Requiem sharks are sharks of the family Carcharhinidae in the order Carcharhiniformes. They are migratory, live-bearing sharks of warm seas and includes such species as the tiger shark, the spinner shark, the blacknose shark, the blacktip shark, the grey reef shark, the blacktip reef shark, the silky shark, the dusky shark, the blue shark, the copper shark and the oceanic whitetip shark.
Citharichthys is a genus of flatfish in the large-tooth flounder family, Paralichthyidae. They have both eyes on the left sides of their heads. They are native to the oceans around the Americas, with a single species, C. stampflii off the West African coast. Most are found in relatively shallow depths, but the genus also includes species found in deep water and species that enter fresh water.
Syngnathus is a genus of fish in the family Syngnathidae found in marine, brackish and sometimes fresh waters of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Ocean. Fossils of these species are found from the Oligocene to the Pleistocene. They are known from various localities of Greece, Italy, Germany and United States.
The smalltail shark is a species of requiem shark, and part of the family Carcharhinidae. It is found in the western Atlantic Ocean, from the northern Gulf of Mexico to southern Brazil. It inhabits shallow waters close to shore, particularly over muddy bottoms around estuaries. It tends to swim low in the water column and forms large aggregations segregated by sex. A slim species generally not exceeding 1.1 m (3.6 ft) in length, the smalltail shark has a rather long, pointed snout, a broad, triangular first dorsal fin, and a second dorsal fin that originates over the midpoint of the anal fin base. It is plain gray in color, without prominent markings on its fins.
Corythoichthys is a genus of pipefishes of the family Syngnathidae. All species in the genus are found in the tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans on reefs or rubble bottoms. Relationships and taxonomy within the genus are still in debate, but there may be at least 23 species.
Doryrhamphus is a genus of pipefishes, one of the two genera colloquially known as flagtail pipefishes and are popular in the aquarium trade. The members of this genus are native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans where they inhabit reef environments. The species in this genus have a maximum length of 14 centimetres (5.5 in) or less, with D. janssi being the only species that surpasses 8.5 centimetres (3.3 in). Most species have a horizontal blue line along their body, and all have a whitish-edged tail that is marked contrastingly with black, red or yellow.
The graveldiver is a species of perciform fish, the only species in the genus Scytalina and the family Scytalinidae. Graveldivers are small, with snake-like heads. Their bodies are compact, and lack pelvic fins, with very small pectoral fins. Their range encompasses the coastal area from the Bering Sea to central California.
Dactylagnus is a genus of sand stargazers, found in the eastern central Pacific and western central Atlantic Ocean.
Gillellus is a genus of sand stargazers, found in the eastern central Pacific Ocean and western central Atlantic Ocean.
Platygillellus is a genus of sand stargazers native to the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the Americas.
The Pacific smalltail shark is a species of requiem shark, in the family Carcharhinidae. It was described in 1898, but later mistakenly merged with Carcharhinus porosus. The mistake was corrected in 2011.
Choeroichthys is a genus of pipefishes of the family Syngnathidae native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
Bulbonaricus is a genus of pipefishes native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
Campichthys is a genus of pipefishes native to the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
Festucalex is a genus of fish in the family Syngnathidae native to the Indian and Pacific Ocean.
Minyichthys is a circumtropical genus of pipefishes consisting of species from the Indo-Pacific and eastern and western Atlantic regions. The genus is characterized as having a maximum standard length of about 60 mm, with two or three anal fin rays. Minyichthys species can be differentiated from members of the closely related genus Micrognathus by their higher frequency of total subdorsal rings.
Epibulus is a genus of wrasses native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
Gunnellichthys is a genus of wormfishes native to the Indian Ocean to the central Pacific Ocean.
Microdesmus is a genus of wormfishes native to the Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Pacific Ocean.
Paragunnellichthys is a genus of wormfishes native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
