Plesiopidae
The longfins, also known as roundheads or spiny basslets, are a family, Plesiopidae, which were formerly placed in the order Perciformes but are now regarded as being ''incertae sedis'' in the subseries Ovalentaria in the clade Percomorpha. They are elongated fishes, found in the Indian Ocean and western Pacific Ocean. Classification In some classifications, the genus ''Notograptus'' is split in its own family, Notograptidae, but FishBase is followed here. There are two subfamilies within the Plesiopidae and the genera are as follows: *Subfamily Acanthoclininae Günther, 1861 ** Genus ''Acanthoclinus'' Jenyns, 1841 ** Genus ''Acanthoplesiops'' Regan, 1912 ** Genus ''Beliops'' Hardy, 1985 ** Genus ''Belonepterygion'' McCulloch, 1915 ** Genus ''Notograptus'' Günther, 1867 * Subfamily Plesiopinae Günther, 1861 ** Genus '' Assessor'' Whitley, 1935 ** Genus ''Calloplesiops'' Fowler and Bean, 1930 ** Genus '' Fraudella'' Whitley, 1935 ** Genus '' Pa ...

Ovalentaria
Ovalentaria is a clade of ray-finned fishes within the Percomorpha, referred to as a subseries. It is made up of a group of fish families which are referred to in ''Fishes of the World's'' fifth edition as'' incertae sedis'', as well as the orders Mugiliformes, Cichliformes, and Blenniiformes. It was named by W. L. Smith and T. J. Near in Wainwright ''et al.'' (2012) based on a molecular phylogeny, but the authors suggested that the group was united by the presence of demersal eggs that are attached to a substrate. Some authors have used the ordinal name Stiassnyiformes for a clade including Mugiloidei, Plesiopidae, Blenniiformes, Atherinomorpha, and Cichlidae, and this grouping does appear to be monophyletic. Classification In the 5th edition of'' Fishes of the World'', the Ovalentaria are classified as: * ''incertae sedis'' ** Family Ambassidae (Asian glassfishes) ** Family Embiotocidae (surfperches) ** Family Grammatidae (basslets) ** Family Plesiopidae (roundheads) ** F ...
