Paraphyonus Brevidorsalis
''Paraphyonus'' is a genus of blind cusk eels found in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans. This genus was created for species formerly classified under ''Aphyonus'' when sampling of specimens showed that the type species of ''Aphyonus'', '' A. gelatinosus'', was not closely related to the other known species in the genus, including the newly identified species ''P. iselini'' and ''P. merretti''. This work also brought ''Barathronus solomonensis'' into the new genus. The result of this classification is that ''Aphyonus'' would be a monotypic genus. Species There are currently 6 recognized species in this genus: * '' Paraphyonus bolini'' ( J. G. Nielsen, 1974) * '' Paraphyonus brevidorsalis'' ( J. G. Nielsen, 1969) * '' Paraphyonus iselini'' J. G. Nielsen, 2015 * '' Paraphyonus merretti'' J. G. Nielsen, 2015 * '' Paraphyonus rassi'' ( J. G. Nielsen, 1975) * '' Paraphyonus solomonensis'' ( J. G.

Monotypy
In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon. A monotypic species is one that does not include subspecies or smaller, infraspecific taxa. In the case of genera, the term "unispecific" or "monospecific" is sometimes preferred. In botanical nomenclature, a monotypic genus is a genus in the special case where a genus and a single species are simultaneously described. In contrast, an oligotypic taxon contains more than one but only a very few subordinate taxa. Examples Just as the term ''monotypic'' is used to describe a taxon including only one subdivision, the contained taxon can also be referred to as monotypic within the higher-level taxon, e.g. a genus monotypic within a family. Some examples of monotypic groups are: Plants * In the order Amborellales, there is only one family, Amborellaceae and there is only one genus, '' Amborella'', and in this genus there is only one species, namely ''Amborella trichopoda.' ...

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), 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 taxonomy (biology), 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 ...

Type (zoology)
In biology, a type is a particular specimen (or in some cases a group of specimens) of an organism to which the scientific name of that organism is formally attached. In other words, a type is an example that serves to anchor or centralizes the defining features of that particular taxon. In older usage (pre-1900 in botany), a type was a taxon rather than a specimen. A taxon is a scientifically named grouping of organisms with other like organisms, a set that includes some organisms and excludes others, based on a detailed published description (for example a species description) and on the provision of type material, which is usually available to scientists for examination in a major museum research collection, or similar institution. Type specimen According to a precise set of rules laid down in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) and the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN), the scientific name of every taxon is almost al ...

Aphyonus
''Aphyonus'' is a genus of blind cusk eels from the family Aphyonidae. It contains four species. A sampling of specimens of ''Aphyonus'' showed that the type species of ''Aphyonus'', '' A. gelatinosus'', was not closely related to the other known species in the genus, and a new genus ''Paraphyonus'' was named for these, including two newly identified species. The result of this classification is that ''Aphyonus'' would be a monotypic genus. Species The four species of ''Aphyonus'' are: *'' Aphyonus bolini'' Nielsen, 1974 *'' Aphyonus brevidorsalis'' Nielsen, 1969 *'' Aphyonus gelatinosus ''Aphyonus gelatinosus'' also known as the gelatinous blindfish is a species of blind cusk eel found in eastern Atlantic Ocean from Azores and Canary Islands; western Indian Ocean in Natal, South Africa and southwest Pacific Ocean known in Aust ...''
