Parascombrops analis, the threespine seabass, is a species of perciform fish in the family Acropomatidae. [1]
They can be found in the Northwestern Pacific off southern Japan, Taiwan and the northern Philippines and Southwestern Pacific from the Coral Sea to Vanuatu. [1]
A midshipman fish is any species of toadfish belonging to the genus Porichthys. Midshipman fish are distinguished by their photophores and four lateral lines. Typical midshipman fishes, such as the plainfin midshipman, are nocturnal and bury themselves in sand or mud in the intertidal zone during the day. At night they float just above the seabed. Some species have venomous dorsal spines and are capable of inflicting serious injuries if handled.
Amphibious fish are fish that are able to leave water for extended periods of time. About 11 distantly related genera of fish are considered amphibious. This suggests that many fish genera independently evolved amphibious traits, a process known as convergent evolution. These fish use a range of terrestrial locomotory modes, such as lateral undulation, tripod-like walking, and jumping. Many of these locomotory modes incorporate multiple combinations of pectoral-, pelvic-, and tail-fin movement.
Asymbolus is a genus of catsharks in the family Scyliorhinidae.
The Australian spotted catshark is a catshark of the family Scyliorhinidae, found only around Australia between 32 and 38°S, at depths between 10 and 180 m. It can grow up to 90 cm. Females of this species were observed as being reproductive year round. They are also confirmed as being a single oviparous species.
The golden lined whiting, Sillago analis, is a species of inshore marine fish of the smelt whiting family, Sillaginidae that inhabits the coastlines of northern Australia and lower Papua New Guinea. The golden lined whiting can be more readily distinguished by its colour than other whitings in the genus Sillago, although swim bladder morphology and spine and ray counts are the most precise method of identification. S. analis is an opportunistic predator, taking a variety of crustaceans, polychaetes and molluscs, with a transition of diet seen as the fish mature. One unusual aspect about the species diet is the large amounts of molluscan siphons it takes. The species spawns between January and March, with juvenile fish inhabiting the shallow protected coastal waters. Golden lined whiting is important to fisheries centered on Shark Bay in Western Australia and also in Queensland, although makes up a relatively minor component of the whiting fishery.
The mutton snapper is a species of marine ray-finned fish, a snapper belonging to the family Lutjanidae. It is found in the Western Atlantic Ocean.
The rough whiting, Sillago nierstraszi, is a dubious species of coastal marine fish in the smelt-whiting family Sillaginidae. The species is known only from the holotype which was collected in 1941 on the south coast of Papua New Guinea, but is thought to be lost. S. nierstraszi is currently a valid species, although during his revision of the sillaginids, Roland McKay suggested the species to be a senior synonym of Sillago analis.
Anchoa is a genus of ray-finned fishes in the family Engraulidae. It currently consists of 35 species.
Clinocottus is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Cottidae, the typical sculpins. They are nearshore benthic fishes native to the northeastern Pacific Ocean. They are mentioned as sharpnose sculpins.
The yellow chromis or yellow puller is a species of marine fish in the family Pomacentridae. It is widespread throughout the tropical waters of the central Indo-Pacific region. A small fish, it can reach a maximum size of 17 cm in length.
The woolly sculpin is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cottidae, the typical sculpins. It is found in the eastern Pacific Ocean, where it occurs along the coastline of California and Baja California.
Umbrina is a genus of fish from the croaker family Sciaenidae. The genus contains 17 species occurring in tropical and warm temperate waters of the Atlantic, the Mediterranean, the Western Indian Ocean and the eastern Pacific.
Parascombrops pellucidus is a species of perciform fish in the Family of Acropomatidae.
Parascombrops argyreus is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae. They usually live in waters 168–620 metres (551–2,034 ft) deep.
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
Parascombrops spinosus, the keelcheek bass, is a species of fish in the family Acropomatidae, the lanternbellies. It is native to the western Atlantic Ocean from Canada to Uruguay.
Selenanthias is a genus of fish in the family Serranidae native to the western and central Pacific Ocean.
Paracombrops 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 Indo-Pacific.
Antennatus analis, known as the tailjet frogfish, is a species of fish in the family Antennariidae. It is native to the tropical Indo-Pacific, where it ranges from Christmas Island and Rowley Shoals to the Society Islands, including Fiji, Hawaii, Oahu, Palau, and Samoa. Its habitat ranges from tidal pools to outer reef slopes, where it occurs at depths of 2–21 m (7–69 ft). It is a benthic, oviparous species reaching 7.8 cm SL.
