Minnow Of The Deep
''Cyclothone'' is a genus containing 13 extant species of bioluminescent fish, commonly known as ' bristlemouths' or 'bristlefishes' due to their shared characteristic of sharp, bristle-like teeth. These fishes typically grow to around 1-3 inches, though some can be larger. They are most commonly found in the mesopelagic zone of the ocean, mostly at depths of over 300 meters (1,000 feet), and many species have bioluminescence. ''Cyclothone'' is believed to be the most abundant fish genus on Earth, with estimates that there are up to a quadrillion individuals (, or one million billion in the short scale). Their abundance is so large that they are also believed to be the most abundant genus of vertebrate on earth. Distribution and Habitat ''Cyclothone'' are found mostly in the open ocean at tropical to temperate latitudes. Within the water column, they reside in the mesopelagic zone (also sometimes called the Ocean Twilight Zone). ''Cyclothone'' fishes are found in the apho ...

Charles Henry Gilbert
Charles Henry Gilbert (December 5, 1859 in Rockford, Illinois – April 20, 1928 in Palo Alto, California) was a pioneer ichthyologist and Fisheries science, fishery biologist of particular significance to natural history of the western United States. He collected and studied fishes from Central America north to Alaska and described many new species. Later he became an expert on Pacific salmon and was a noted conservation movement, conservationist of the Pacific Northwest. He is considered by many as the intellectual founder of American fisheries biology. He was one of the 22 "pioneer professors" (founding faculty) of Stanford University. Early life and education Born in Rockford, Illinois, Gilbert spent his early years in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he came under the influence of his high school teacher, David Starr Jordan (1851‒1931).
