Smooth Skate
The Anacanthobatidae, the smooth skates or leg skates, are a family of skates found at depths below in the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. They lack the dorsal denticles (sharp, tooth-like scales) of other rays, hence their name, from Greek ''an-'' meaning "without", ''acantha'' meaning "thorn", and ''bathys'' meaning "deep". They are bottom-dwelling fishes found on the continental slopes of tropical and subtropical The subtropical zones or subtropics are geographical and climate zones to the north and south of the tropics.

Cecil Von Bonde
Cecil von Bonde (born Cape Town 19 July 1895; died 21 March 1983) was a South African zoologist, fisheries scientist and oceanographer. Biography Von Bonde was born in Cape Town and matriculated at the Normal College Boys' High School, Cape Town, in 1912 before going on to the University of Cape Town where he attained his Master of Arts degree and was appointed as a Senior Lecturer in Zoology in 1918. He gained his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in zoology from the University of Cape Town in 1923, his thesis was "The zoogeographical distribution of the Heterosomata lat fishes. Between 1924 and 1925 he studied oceanography at the University of Liverpool, also serving as a lecturer in Zoology there. He returned to Cape Town in 1926 where he wa appointed as acting head of the Zoology Department following the death of Professor J.D.F. Gilchrist. He was appointed as Director of Fisheries and Government Marine Biologist in South Africa in 1928 when he was also seconded to the Conference ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. '' Panthera leo'' (lion) and '' Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus '' Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. phylogenetic analysis should cl ...
