Pomfret
Pomfrets are perciform fishes belonging to the family Bramidae. The family currently includes 20 species across seven genera. Several species are important food sources for humans, especially ''Brama brama'' in South Asia. The earlier form of the pomfret's name was "", a word which probably ultimately comes from Portuguese ''pampo'', referring to various fish such as the blue butterfish ('' Stromateus fiatola''). The fish meat is white in color. Distribution They are found globally in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, as well as numerous seas including the Norwegian, Mediterranean, and Sea of Japan. Nearly all species can be found in the high seas. However, fishes in the genera ''Pterycombus'' and ''Pteraclis'' tend to be found off continental shelves. Further, fishes in the genus ''Eumegistus'' are hypothesized to be largely benthic and found to occupy deep water shelves. Some species of pomfrets are also known as monchong, specifically in Hawaiian cuisine. Genera T ...

Animals Described In 1995
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom Animalia. With few exceptions, animals consume organic material, breathe oxygen, are able to move, can reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of cells, the blastula, during embryonic development. Over 1.5 million living animal species have been described—of which around 1 million are insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology. Most living animal species are in Bilateria, a clade whose members have a bilaterally symmetric body plan. The Bilateria include the protostomes, containing animals such as nematodes, arthropods, flatworms, annelids and molluscs, and the deuterostomes, containing the echinoderms and ...
