Ambassis Jacksoniensis
''Ambassis jacksoniensis'', commonly known as the Port Jackson glassfish or Port Jackson perchlet, is a species of fish in the family Ambassidae native to eastern Australia. It gains its common name from its transparent appearance. Taxonomy William John Macleay described the Port Jackson glassfish as ''Pseudambassis jacksoniensis'' in 1881 from a specimen collected in Port Jackson, noting that the length was three and a third times the fishes' height. The species name relates to the location it was described. It was classified in the new genus ''Velambassis'' by Gilbert Whitley in 1935, on the basis of having weaker dorsal spines than other members of the family. Allen and Burgess found no reason for the species not to be in the genus ''Ambassis'' and reassigned it there in 1990. This species and the co-occurring estuary glassfish ('' A. marianus'') are the only two members of the genus found in temperate waters. The others are found in the waters of northern Australia and south ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
