Sladenia (fish)
''Sladenia'' is a genus of deep sea goosefishes found in the Caribbean Sea and western Pacific Ocean. The genus was named for Percy Sladen (1849–1900), a British echinoderm biologist. The holotype of ''S. gardineri'' was collected during an expedition funded by his memorial trust. Species There are currently three recognized species in this genus: * ''Sladenia gardineri'' Regan, 1908 * ''Sladenia remiger'' Hugh McCormick Smith, H. M. Smith & Lewis Radcliffe, Radcliffe, 1912 (Celebes monkfish) * ''Sladenia shaefersi'' John H. Caruso, J. H. Caruso & Harvey R. Bullis, Bullis, 1976 * ''Sladenia zhui'' Ni Yong, Y. Ni, Wu Han-Ling, H.

Charles Tate Regan
Charles Tate Regan FRS (1 February 1878 – 12 January 1943) was a British ichthyologist, working mainly around the beginning of the 20th century. He did extensive work on fish classification schemes. Born in Sherborne, Dorset, he was educated at Derby School and Queens' College, Cambridge and in 1901 joined the staff of the Natural History Museum, where he became Keeper of Zoology, and later director of the entire museum, in which role he served from 1927 to 1938. Regan was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1917. Regan mentored a number of scientists, among them Ethelwynn Trewavas, who continued his work at the British Natural History Museum. Species Among the species he described is the Siamese fighting fish (''Betta splendens''). In turn, a number of fish species have been named ''regani'' in his honour: *A Thorny Catfish '' Anadoras regani'' (Steindachner, 1908) *The Dwarf Cichlid '' Apistogramma regani'' *'' Apogon regani'' *A Catfish '' Astroblepus regani'' * ...

Goosefish
Goosefishes are anglerfishes in the family Lophiidae found in the Arctic, Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, where they live on sandy and muddy bottoms of the continental shelf and continental slope, to depths of more than . Like most other anglerfishes, they have a very large head with a large mouth that bears long, sharp, recurved teeth. Also like other anglerfishes, the first spine of the spinous dorsal fin has been modified as an angling apparatus (illicium) that bears a bulb-like or fleshy lure (esca). The angling apparatus is located at the tip of the snout just above the mouth and is used to attract prey. Lophiid anglerfishes also have two or three other dorsal fin spines located more posteriorly on the head, and a separate spinous dorsal fin with one to three spines located more posteriorly on the body just in front of the soft dorsal fin. In the more primitive anglerfish genera (''Sladenia'' and ''Lophiodes''), the gill opening extends partially in front of the elonga ...
