This genus is the only member of its family, a family which, with the families Nandidae and Polycentridae is a group of taxa which are sisters to the Anabantiformes and form part of an unnamed and unranked clade within the series Ovalentaria, closest to the Carangiformes. These three families share the common name "leaffish" . Species There are currently 8 recognized species in this genus: * '' Pristolepis fasciata'' (Bleeker, 1851) (Malayan leaffish) * '' Pristolepis grootii'' (Bleeker, 1852) (Indonesian leaffish) * '' Pristolepis malabarica'' ( Günther, 1864) * '' Pristolepis marginata'' Jerdon, 1849 (Malabar leaffish) * '' Pristolepis pauciradiata'' Plamoottil & Win, 2017 (Myanmar Leaf fish) * '' Pristolepis pentacantha'' Plamoottil, 2014 (Wayanad leaffish) * '' Pristolepis procerus'' ...

Pristolepis Pentacantha
''Pristolepis pentacantha'' is a species of fish in the family Pristolepididae described from Kabani River of Kerala, India. It can be distinguished from its relative species by the following combination of characters: eyes are larger and closely set, dorsal fin carries 15–16 spines and 11 soft rays, anal fin carries 5 spines and 7 soft rays. The fish species was discovered by Mathews Plamoottil, Assistant Professor in Zoology at the Government College, Chavara, Kollam, from Bavali, near the Karnataka border, in January 2012. Based on scientific studies and comparison with other fishes of the same species found in Kerala, it was found that ''P. pentacantha'' was a new species. Known as aattuchemballi in local parlance, fish of the family Pristolepididae are edible. They can also be reared as an ornamental fish. The name ''"pentacantha"'' is derived from two Greek words, ''"pente"'' meaning five and ''"akantha"'' meaning thorn, referring to the five spines in the anal fin ...

Anabantiformes
The Anabantiformes , collectively known as Labyrinth fish. are an order of air-breathing freshwater ray-finned fish with two suborders, five families (Channidae, Aenigmachannidae, Anabantidae, Helostomatidae, and Osphronemidae) and having at least 207 species. In addition, some authorities expand the order to include the suborder Nandoidei, which includes three families - the Nandidae, Badidae and Pristolepididae - that appear to be closely related to the Anabantiformes. The order, and these three related families (classified as ''incertae sedis'' by the 5th edition of '' Fishes of the World''), are part of a monophyletic clade which is a sister clade to the Ovalentaria, the other orders in the clade being Synbranchiformes, Carangiformes, Istiophoriformes and Pleuronectiformes. This clade is sometimes referred to as the Carangaria but is left unnamed and unranked in ''Fishes of the World''. This group of fish are found in Asia and Africa, with some species introduced in ...

Nandidae
Nandidae, the leaffish, are a family of small freshwater fishes which some authorities classify in the order Anabantiformes, but which the 5th edition of '' Fishes of the World'' classifies the family and the related Badidae and Pristolepididae outside that order as "sister-taxa". Fishes of the World classified these families and the Anabantiformes alongside Synbranchiformes, Carangiformes, Istiophoriformes and Pleuronectiformes in a monophyletic clade which is a sister taxon to the Ovalentaria but to which the authors do not assign a rank or a name. According to FishBase, the family includes three genera: '' Nandus'' of South and Southeast Asia with several species, and the monotypic '' Afronandus'' and '' Polycentropsis'' of tropical West and Middle Africa. Most recent authorities place the two African genera in the South American leaffish family, Polycentridae, which is only distantly related to ''Nandus'' (the "true" Nandidae).Collins, R.A., R. Britz, and L. Ruber (2015). ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
