Grammatobothus is a genus of small lefteye flounders native to the Indo-Pacific.
There are currently three recognized species in this genus: [1]
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.
Pleuronectidae, also known as righteye flounders, are a family of flounders. They are called "righteye flounders" because most species lie on the sea bottom on their left sides, with both eyes on their right sides. The Paralichthyidae are the opposite, with their eyes on the left side. A small number of species in Pleuronectidae can also have their eyes on the left side, notably the members of the genus Platichthys.
Neoachiropsetta milfordi, the armless flounder or finless flounder, is a species of southern flounder, the only member of the genus Neoachiropsetta. It is found in Antarctic and subantarctic waters, in depths of between 100 and 1,000 metres, and grows to a length of 57 centimetres (22 in)
Rhombosolea is a genus of righteye flounders. The four species in this genus can be found in the waters around New Zealand and southern Australia.
Limanda is a genus of righteye flounders native to the northern Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Liopsetta is a genus of righteye flounders native to the northern oceans.
Atheresthes is a genus of righteye flounders native to the north Pacific Ocean where both species are important commercially.
Hippoglossoides is a genus of righteye flounders native to the North Pacific and North Atlantic oceans.
Pseudopleuronectes is a genus of righteye flounders mostly native to the northwestern Pacific Ocean with one species found in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean.
Nematops is a genus of righteye flounders native to the Indo-West Pacific. Due to their small size and depth of habitation few examples of this genus are caught, and as a result little is known of their morphology and distribution.
Ammotretis is a genus of righteye flounders native to the coastal waters off southern Australia.
The Citharidae or largescale flounders are a small family of flounders with four genera. Three genera are restricted to the Indo-Pacific, while Citharus is from the Mediterranean and East Atlantic. There are a total of seven species. Species reach lengths ranging between 14 and 36 centimetres.
Bothus is a genus of flatfish in the family Bothidae from the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic Oceans. Some species in this genus have spots consisting of blue rings.
The scaldfishes comprise a genus, Arnoglossus, of lefteye flounders. They are found in the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic Oceans, including the Mediterranean and Black Sea. They are entirely absent from most of the Americas; the only exceptions are A. coeruleosticta and A. multirastris found off Chile. The genus include both species found in shallow and deeper water. The largest species reaches 28 cm (11 in).
Laeops is a genus of small lefteye flounders from the Indo-Pacific. They are mainly found in deep water, although a few species have been recorded shallower than 100 m (330 ft).
Ancylopsetta is a genus of large-tooth flounders mostly found along the Atlantic coast of the Americas with one species found along the Pacific coast.
Cyclopsetta is a genus of large-tooth flounders native to the coastal waters of the Americas.
Etropus is a genus of large-tooth flounders native to the coastal waters of the Americas.
Syacium is a genus of large-tooth flounders found in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. With the exception of S. guineensis from the Atlantic coast of Africa, all species are from the Americas. The largest species in the genus reaches 40 cm (16 in) in length.
Samaris is a genus of crested flounders native to the Indo-Pacific.
