Shrimpfish
Shrimpfish, also called razorfish, are five small species of marine fishes in the subfamily Centriscinae of the family Centriscidae. The species in the genera ''Aeoliscus'' and ''Centriscus'' are found in relatively shallow tropical parts of the Indo-Pacific, while the banded bellowsfish, which often is placed in the subfamily Macroramphosinae instead, is restricted to deeper southern oceans. Shrimpfish are nearly transparent and flattened from side to side with long snouts and sharp-edged bellies. A thin, dark stripe runs along their bodies. These stripes and their shrimp Shrimp are crustaceans (a form of shellfish) with elongated bodies and a primarily swimming mode of locomotion – most commonly Caridea and Dendrobranchiata of the decapod order, although some crustaceans outside of this order are refer ...-like appearance are the source of their name. They swim in a synchronized manner with their heads pointing downwards. Adult shrimpfish are up to long, includin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Xyrichtys
''Xyrichtys'' is a genus of wrasses native to the Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Indian and Pacific Oceans, where they are found in sandy-bottomed habitats. They are commonly known as razorfishes, as they are very laterally compressed with a sharp bony ridge at the front of their heads. This adaptation allows them to burrow very quickly into the sand at any sign of danger. Species The 11 currently recognized species in this genus are: * ''Xyrichtys blanchardi'' (Jean Cadenat, Cadenat & Émile Marchal, Marchal, 1963) (marmalade razorfish) * ''Xyrichtys incandescens'' Alasdair James Edwards, A. J. Edwards & Hugh Roger Lubbock, Lubbock, 1981 (Brazilian razorfish) * ''Xyrichtys javanicus'' (Pieter Bleeker, Bleeker, 1862) (Java razorfish) * ''Xyrichtys martinicensis'' Achille Valenciennes, Valenciennes, 1840 (rosy razorfish) * ''Xyrichtys mundiceps'' Theodore Nicholas Gill, T. N. Gill, 1862 (Cape razorfish) * ''Xyrichtys novacula'' (Carl Linnaeus, Linnaeus, 1758) (pearly razorfish) * ''Xyrich ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Aeoliscus Strigatus
''Aeoliscus strigatus'', also known as the razorfish, jointed razorfish or coral shrimpfish, is a member of the family Centriscidae of the order Syngnathiformes. This unique fish adopts a head-down tail-up position as an adaptation for hiding among sea urchin spines."Eyewitness handbooks Aquarium Fish: The visual guide to more than 500 marine and freshwater fish varieties" By Dick Mills. Page 283 The razorfish is found in coastal waters in the Indo-West Pacific. Its natural habitat includes beds of sea grass and coral reefs, where sea urchins are found. Description The razorfish is easily identifiable due to its particular body shape as well as its way of moving in Synchronicity, synchrone group head down. It is a small fish with a maximum size of long, its body is stretched ending by a long fine "beak". Its fins are considerably reduced and transparent. The dorsal surface of the razorfish is covered by protective bony plates. They extend past the end of the body and over the ta ...

Razor Shell
A razor is a bladed tool primarily used in the removal of body hair through the act of shaving. Kinds of razors include straight razors, safety razors, disposable razors, and electric razors. While the razor has been in existence since before the Bronze Age (the oldest razor-like object has been dated to 18,000 BC), the most common types of razors currently used are the safety razor and the electric razor. History Razors have been identified from many Bronze Age cultures. These were made of bronze or obsidian and were generally oval-shaped, with a small tang protruding from one of the short ends.Warwickshire County Council: New Prehistoric Archaeology Objects "Even further away in ti ...

Pinna (bivalve)
''Pinna'' is a genus of bivalve molluscs belonging to the family Pinnidae. MolluscaBase eds. (2022). MolluscaBase. Pinna Linnaeus, 1758. Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=138352 on 2022-01-16 The type species of the genus is '' Pinna rudis''. The most completely studied species in the genus is '' P. nobilis'', a Mediterranean pen shell which was historically important as the principal source of sea silk. Description These pen shells can reach a length of about . They are characterized by thin, elongated, wedge-shaped, and almost triangular shells with long, toothless edges. The surface of the shells shows radial ribs over their entire length. ''Pinna'' is distinguished from its sibling genus ''Atrina'' by the presence of a sulcus dividing the nacreous region of the valves, and the positioning of the adductor scar on the dorsal side of shells. These bivalves most commonly lie point-first on the sea ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
