Stellifer Zestocarus
''Stellifer'' is a genus of fish in the family Sciaenidae, the drums and croakers. It is found in New World waters.Chao, N. L. (2001)Two new species of ''Stellifer'' from inshore waters of the eastern Pacific, with a redescription of ''S. ephelis'' (Perciformes: Sciaenidae).''Rev. Biol. Trop.'' 49 Supl. 1 67-80. Many species are known commonly as stardrums. In the Americas, this is one of the most diverse genera among the sciaenids. Its members can be found in the tropics and subtropics and in shallow and deeper waters. Some are semianadromous, spawning in the ocean near estuaries so the eggs and young will be taken into lower-salinity environments on the tides.Pombo, M., et al. (2012)Population biology of ''Stellifer rastrifer'', ''S. brasiliensis'' and ''S. stellifer'' in Caraguatatuba Bay, northern coast of São Paulo, Brazil.''Brazilian Journal of Oceanography'' 60(3) 271-82. The genus belongs to the subfamily Stelliferinae, whose members have double-chambered swim bladders ...
