Nomorhamphus
''Nomorhamphus'' is a southeast Asian genus of viviparous halfbeaks from streams, rivers and lakes in Sulawesi (Indonesia) and the Philippines. They are all viviparous, producing small clutches of around a dozen fry about 10 to 15 mm long at birth. Females are generally larger than the males. In the largest species, such as ''Nomorhamphus liemi'', the females typically reach about in length, whereas the males reach about in length. Males are also more brightly coloured than the females (often having red, black, or blue patches on their fins). Compared with many other halfbeaks, the lower mandible, or beak, is relatively short, on females in particular barely protruding beyond the length of the upper mandible. The males of some species (e.g., '' N. ebrardtii'') have short, straight beaks, but those of others (e.g., '' N. liemi'') have short beaks that curve downwards forming a shape often compared to a goatee beard by aquarists. '' N. aenigma'' is unique within ''Nomorhamphu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Viviparous Halfbeak
Zenarchopteridae, the viviparous halfbeaks, is a family in the order Beloniformes. The Zenarchopteridae exhibit strong sexual dimorphism, practicing internal fertilisation, and in some cases ovoviviparous or viviparous (the family also includes oviparous species).Berra, T.M. (2001). ''Freshwater Fish Distribution.'' p. 320. Tan, H.H. & Lim, K.K.P. (2013). Three new species of freshwater halfbeaks (Teleostei: Zenarchopteridae: ''Hemirhamphodon'') from Borneo.' The Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 61(2): 735–747. The members in the family are mainly found in fresh and brackish water of tropical Asia and New Guinea, but the genus '' Zenarchopterus'' also includes marine species from the Indo-Pacific. Several, such as the wrestling halfbeak, have become commonly traded aquarium fish.

Nomorhamphus Ebrardtii
''Nomorhamphus ebrardtii'' is a species of viviparous halfbeak, a ray-finned fish in the family Zenarchopteridae, endemic to brackish and freshwater locations in Sulawesi and the neighbouring island of Kabaena in Indonesia. This species can reach a length of SL. Description ''Nomorhamphus ebrardtii'' grows to a standard length of about . It is an elongate, somewhat compressed fish with the lower mandible considerably longer than the upper mandible. Alongside this there is a fold of skin which projects sideways. The beak contains no teeth but there are small pointed teeth in both jaws. The dorsal fin has ten to twelve soft rays, the anal fin fifteen and the pectoral fins twelve. The dorsal fin is shorter than the anal fin, and its origin is posterior to the origin of the anal fin. The fifth ray of the dorsal fin is the longest but is not as long as the second ray of the anal fin. This is modified in males into an "andropodium", a movable intromittent organ used to deliver milt i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sulawesi
Sulawesi (), also known as Celebes (), is an island in Indonesia. One of the four Greater Sunda Islands, and the world's eleventh-largest island, it is situated east of Borneo, west of the Maluku Islands, and south of Mindanao and the Sulu Archipelago. Within Indonesia, only Sumatra, Borneo, and New Guinea, Papua are larger in territory, and only Java and Sumatra have larger populations.

Three gulfs separate these peninsulas: the Gulf of Tomini between the northern Minahasa and East peninsulas, the Tolo Gulf between the East and Southeast peninsulas, and the Bone Gulf between the South and Southeast peninsulas. The Strait of Makassar runs along the western side of the island and separates the island from Borneo. Etymology ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
