Felidae is a family of mammals in the order Carnivora, colloquially referred to as cats, and constitutes a clade. A member of this family is also called a felid. The term "cat" refers both to felids in general and specifically to the domestic cat.

"Sardine" and "pilchard" are common names that refer to various small, oily forage fish in the herring family Clupeidae. The term "sardine" was first used in English during the early 15th century and may come from the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, around which sardines were once abundant.
The Ganges shark is a critically endangered species of requiem shark found in the Ganges River and the Brahmaputra River of Bangladesh and India. It is often confused with the more common bull shark, which also inhabits the Ganges River and is sometimes incorrectly referred to as the Ganges shark. Unlike bull sharks, which need to migrate to salt water to reproduce, species in the genus Glyphis are true river sharks. The genus is currently considered to contain three recent species; genetic evidence has shown that both the Borneo river shark and Irrawaddy river shark should be regarded as synonyms of the Ganges shark, expanding the range of the species to Pakistan, Myanmar, Borneo, and Java. The species remains poorly known and very rare.
Clingfishes are fishes of the family Gobiesocidae, the only family in the order Gobiesociformes. These fairly small to very small fishes are widespread in tropical and temperate regions, mostly near the coast, but a few species in deeper seas or fresh water. Most species shelter in shallow reefs or seagrass beds, clinging to rocks, algae and seagrass leaves with their sucking disc, a structure on their chest.
The New Zealand catshark, Bythaelurus dawsoni, is a catshark of the family Scyliorhinidae in the order Carcharhiniformes. This species is endemic to in the deep waters around New Zealand. Its length is up to 45 centimetres (18 in). The New Zealand catshark is a small, little-known deep water bottom shark. It is dark brown around the top with a few widely spaced pale spots, and white below. It feeds on bottom-living crustaceans. It is also completely harmless to humans.
The blackbelly lanternshark or lucifer shark, Etmopterus lucifer, is a shark of the family Etmopteridae, found around the world in tropical to temperate seas, at depths between 150 and 1,250 meters. Its length is up to 47 centimeters. This species consumes mesopelagic cephalopods, fishes, and crustaceans.
McMillan's catshark is a catshark of the family Scyliorhinidae, in the order Carcharhiniformes. McMillan's cat shark is a small, rare and little-known deepwater shark. It is endemic to New Zealand. This species is found in the deep waters of the lower continental slope around New Zealand, on the West Norfolk Ridge and off North Cape. This species can be found at depths of 985-1350m. It can grow up to a length of 45 cm.

Cavefish or cave fish is a generic term for fresh and brackish water fish adapted to life in caves and other underground habitats. Related terms are subterranean fish, troglomorphic fish, troglobitic fish, stygobitic fish, phreatic fish and hypogean fish.
The sand sole is a fish species in the family Soleidae. Widespread in the northeastern and southeastern Atlantic, to the Gulf of Guinea in the south, also in the Mediterranean Sea. Recorded in the Suez Canal. Sometimes, it is mentioned for the Black Sea and Sea of Azov, but mistakly because it is inhabited by another species, Blackhand sole, which was considered as subspecies P. l. nasuta. It is a marine, subtropical, demersal fish, up to 40 centimetres (16 in) long.
Robinsichthys arrowsmithensis is a species of goby found on the Arrowsmith Bank in the Caribbean Sea at depths of from 92 to 596 metres. This species grows to a length of 2.3 centimetres (0.91 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus. The name of this genus honours C. Richard Robins, an American ichthyologist who was an important contributor to the study of gobies of the Americas.
The fat sleeper is a species of fish belonging to the family Eleotridae, known for their flat heads; they are generally found in fresh water.
Chelon bispinosus is a fish of the family Mugilidae. It is one of seven species in the genus Chelon. It is endemic to waters near Cape Verde in the east central Atlantic Ocean. This species is found in the neritic zone.
The orangebelly goby is a species of fish described by Gilmore in 1979. It is known only from a pair of specimens collected from the eastern and western sides of the Florida Peninsula.
The toadfish goby is a species of bony fish in the family Gobiidae which is found in areas of sandy substrates among coral reefs. It occurs in the western Atlantic Ocean from the Bahamas south through the Caribbean Sea as well as along the Central and South American coast from Belize to Santa Marta, Colombia. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Cryptopsilotris, although it was formerly classified under Psilotris and its generic name means "hidden Pilotris", meaning that it was hidden within that genus.
