Ateleopus
''Ateleopus'' is a genus of ray-finned fish in the jellynose family Ateleopodidae. It is the type genus of its family, and the order Ateleopodiformes. For some time, it was known as ''Podateles'', because ''Ateleopus'' had been used to replace the frog genus name ''Atelopus'', which was deemed to be a spelling error. This was mistaken, however, and the fish and frog genera reverted to their original names. This genus occurs in the fossil record since the mid-Miocene. Species There are currently 4 recognized species in this genus. Several other species have been described, but these are synonyms.Kaga, T., Van Oijen, M.J.P., Kubo, Y. & Kitagawa, E.

Pacific Jellynose Fish
The pacific jellynose fish (''Ateleopus japonicus'') (Shachiburi, 鯱振 in Japanese) is a species of jellynose fish in the family Ateleopodidae. It can grow up to a length of 95 cm, but is more commonly found at lengths of 35 cm. There are three other species in its genus. It feeds on prawns, and is harmless to humans. It is benthic, and lives at depths from 140 to 600 meters, but it may rise up to 100 meters at night, in areas like China, Japan, Malaysia, New Caledonia, Taiwan, and Vietnam in the Indo-Pacific. It is a rare fish to encounter, and its population seems to be stable, but it may be a bycatch Bycatch (or by-catch), in the fishing industry, is a fish or other marine species that is caught unintentionally while fishing for specific species or sizes of wildlife. Bycatch is either the wrong species, the wrong sex, or is undersized or juve ... in fisheries. References Ateleopodiformes Fish described in 1854 Fish of the Pacific Ocean Fish of the Indian ...

Ateleopodidae
The jellynose fishes or tadpole fishes are the small order Ateleopodiformes. This group of ray-finned fish is monotypic, containing a single family Ateleopodidae. It has about a dozen species in four genera, but these enigmatic fishes are in need of taxonomic revision. The scientific name means "''Ateleopus''-shaped", from ''Ateleopus'' (the type genus) + the standard fish order suffix "-formes". It ultimately derives from Ancient Greek ''atelēs'' (ἀτελής, "imperfect") + ''pous'' (πούς, "foot") + Latin ''forma'' ("external form"), the Greek part in reference to the reduced pectoral and ventral fins of the jellynoses. Description and ecology Jellynoses are deep-water, bottom-dwelling, marine fishes. They are known from the Caribbean Sea, eastern Atlantic, the western and central Indopacific, and the Pacific coast of Central America.Olney (1998), Nelson (2006): p.213 Their skeletons are largely cartilage (hence "jellynose"), although they are true teleosts and ...

Atelopus
''Atelopus'' is a large genus of Bufonidae, commonly known as harlequin frogs or toads, from Central America, Central and South America, ranging as far north as Costa Rica and as far south as Bolivia. ''Atelopus'' species are small, generally brightly colored, and Diurnal animal, diurnal. Most species are associated with mid-to-high elevation streams. This genus has been greatly affected by Decline in amphibian populations, amphibian declines, and many species are now considered endangered, while others already are extinct. Almost 40% of the described species in the genus are considered IUCN Red List, possibly extinct; this is raised to 45% when data deficient species are added; this number may be even higher, given that the genus contains many Undescribed taxon, undescribed species that could also be extinct, and many of the species considered critically endangered but extant may have gone extinct after the last surveys that detected them, or could go extinct in the future.

Family (biology)
Family ( la, familia, plural ') is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". What belongs to a family—or if a described family should be recognized at all—are proposed and determined by practicing taxonomists. There are no hard rules for describing or recognizing a family, but in plants, they can be characterized on the basis of both vegetative and reproductive features of plant species. Taxonomists often take different positions about descriptions, and there may be no broad consensus across the scientific community for some time. The publishing of new data and opini ...
