Paracombrops is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes from the family Acropomatidae, the lanternbellies or glowbellies. [2] The fish in this genus are found in the Indo-Pacific.
The following species are classified within this genus: [2]
Bass is a name shared by many species of fish. The term encompasses both freshwater and marine species, all belonging to the large order Perciformes, or perch-like fishes. The word bass comes from Middle English bars, meaning 'perch'.
Acropomatidae is a family of fish in the order Perciformes, commonly known as lanternbellies. Acropoma species are notable for having light-emitting organs along their undersides. They are found in all temperate and tropical oceans, usually at depths of several hundred meters. There are about 32 species in as many as 9 genera, although some authorities recognise fewer genera than Fishbase does.
The viviparous brotulas form a family, the Bythitidae, of ophidiiform fishes. They are known as viviparous brotulas as they generally bear live young, although there are indications that some species do not. They are generally infrequently seen, somewhat tadpole-like in overall shape and mostly about 5–10 cm (2–4 in) in length, but some species grow far larger and may surpass 60 cm (2 ft).
Barbatula is a genus of fish in the family Nemacheilidae native to Europe and Asia. They are found in streams, rivers and lakes, and the genus also includes Europe's only cavefish, which only was discovered in the Danube–Aachtopf system in Germany in 2015.
Ogilbia is a genus of viviparous brotulas. The generic name honours the Australian naturalist James Douglas Ogilby (1853-1925), for his contribution to the knowledge of the fishes of Australia.
Oneirodes is a genus of fish in the family Oneirodidae.
Didymothallus is a genus of viviparous brotulas found in the Indian and western Pacific Oceans.
Majungaichthys is a genus of viviparous brotulas native to the western Indian Ocean. The generic name refers to Majunga in Madagascar where the type was collected.
Microbrotula is a genus of viviparous brotulas.
Ogilbichthys is a genus of viviparous brotulas found in the central-western Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. he generic name refers to the resemblance of these fish to those in the genus Ogilbia, a name honours the Australian naturalist James Douglas Ogilby (1853-1925), combined with ichthys which means "fish" in Greek.
Acropoma is a genus of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the temperate ocean-basses or lanternbellies. They are native to the Indian Ocean and western Pacific Ocean. They are characterized by a ventral luminous organ that has a luminous gland, a lens, and a reflector. The shape of the luminous organ helps distinguish the species in the genus.
The blackthroat seaperch, also known as the rosy seabass, is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the temperate ocean-basses or lanternbellies. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Doederleinia. It is native to the eastern Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean from Japan to Australia. In Japan it is known as Nodoguro, or Akamutsu.
Malakichthys is a genus of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the temperate ocean-basses or lanternfishes. They are native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean.
Neoscombrops is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes from the family Acropomatidae, the lanternbellies or glowbellies. The fish in this genus are found in the Atlantic Pacific and Indian Oceans.
Verilus is a genus of fish in the family Acropomatidae found in the Atlantic.
Parascombrops argyreus is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae. They usually live in waters 168–620 metres (551–2,034 ft) deep.
The thinlip splitfin is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the lanternbellies. It lives around Africa's Atlantic coast at a depth of 50–500 m and can grow up to 16.5 cm long.
Parascombrops philippinensis, the sharptooth seabass, is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the lanternbellies. It usually inhabits a depth of 180–220 metres and lives in and around the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, where it reaches a length of around 13 centimetres.
Parascombrops serratospinosus, the roughspine seabass is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the lanternbellies. It is found in the Western Pacific commonly from Taiwan and the Philippines to northwestern Australia and Vanuatu but it is rare in the waters off Japan
The three-spine bass is a species of ray-finned fish, a lanternbelly from the family Acropomatidae. It is a deep water species which is found in the western Atlantic from the northeastern Gulf of Mexico to Surinam. This fish was first formally described in 1984 as Synagrops trispinosus but in 2017 was placed in the monotypic genus Caraibops.
