Woodsia is a genus of lightfishes.
There are currently two recognized species in this genus: [1]
Danaphos is an oceanic ray-finned fish genus which belongs in the family Sternoptychidae. A common name is bottlelights.
Maurolicus is an oceanic ray-finned fish genus which belongs in the marine hatchetfish family Sternoptychidae. They are commonly known as pearlsides, but the brilliant pearlside is the related Argyripnus iridescens. Occasionally, "bristle-mouth fishes" is used as a common name, but that usually refers to the genus Argyripnus or the family Gonostomatidae.
Lightfishes are small stomiiform fishes in the family Phosichthyidae
Phosichthys argenteus, the silver lightfish, a species of lightfish and the only member of the genus Phosichthys, is found in deep subtropical waters of all oceans, from depths of 500 to 2,000 m. Its length is between 10 and 30 cm. They are bioluminescent fishes, possessing rows of photophores along their sides, with which they hunt planktonic invertebrates, especially krill.
Woodsia is a genus of ferns in the family Woodsiaceae. Species of Woodsia are commonly known as cliff ferns. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), it was the only genus in the family Woodsiaceae. In 2020, Physematium was split off from Woodsia on the basis of molecular phylogenetic evidence. As of June 2023, Plants of the World Online continued to treat Physematium as a synonym of Woodsia.
Woodsiaceae is a family of ferns. In the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group classification of 2016 (PPG I), it is placed in the suborder Aspleniineae. The family can also be treated as the subfamily Woodsioideae of a very broadly defined family Aspleniaceae sensu lato. In PPG I, the family contained only one genus, Woodsia. In 2020, Physematium was split off from Woodsia on the basis of molecular phylogenetic evidence. As of June 2023, Plants of the World Online continued to treat Physematium as a synonym of Woodsia.
Woodsia alpina, commonly known as alpine woodsia, is a fern found in northern latitudes in North America and Eurasia. Also known as northern woodsia or alpine cliff fern, it is typically found in crevices, scree slopes and cliffs containing slate and calcareous rocks, especially limestone.
Woodsia ilvensis, commonly known as oblong woodsia, is a fern found in North America and northern Eurasia. Also known as rusty woodsia or rusty cliff fern, it is typically found on sunny, exposed cliffs and rocky slopes and on thin, dry, acidic soils.
The stareye lightfish is a species in the monotypic genus of Pollichthys. They are small stomiiform fishes found in oceans throughout the world. The maximum length is 6 cm.
Vinciguerria is a genus of lightfishes, family Phosichthyidae. It is named for Dr. Decio Vinciguerra (1856–1934), an Italian ichthyologist.
Physematium obtusum, the bluntlobe cliff fern, is a common rock fern of Appalachia and eastern North America. It prefers a calcareous substrate, but also grows in neutral soils. It may grow on rock faces or in scree.
Ichthyococcus are a genus of lightfishes. It is one of seven genera in the family Phosichthyidae.
Ichthyococcus australis is a species of the genus Ichthyococcus. It is also known as Southern lightfish.
Slim lightfish, also known as Ichthyococcus elongatus, is a species of the genus Ichthyococcus.
Ichthyococcus intermedius, also known as Intermediate lightfish, is a species of the genus Ichthyococcus.
Bulldog lightfish, also known as Ichthyococcus irregularis, is a species of the genus Ichthyococcus.
Ichthyococcus parini is a lightfish of the genus Ichthyococcus.
Polymetme is a genus of lightfishes.
Maurolicus imperatorius, commonly knowns as the Emperor seamount lightfish, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Maurolicus. It lives in the North Pacific.
Maurolicus japonicus, commonly known as the North Pacific lightfish, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Maurolicus. It is found the North Pacific.
