Zoarcinae
''Zoarces'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Zoarcidae, the eelpouts. It is the only genus in the subfamily Zoarcinae. These eelpouts are found in the northern Atlantic and northern Pacific Oceans. Taxonomy ''Zoarces'' was first proposed as a genus in 1829 by the French zoologist Georges Cuvier. ''Blennius viviparus'', which had been described in 1758 by Linnaeus in the tenth edition of his '' Systema Naturae'' from "European seas". was subsequently designated as the type species. ''Zoarces'' is the only genus classified within the subfamily Zoarcinae, one of 4 subfamilies in the family Zoarcidae. Etymology ''Zoarces'' means "viviparous", i.e. giving birth to live young, however these fishes are ovoviviparous. Species ''Zoarces'' contains the following species: *''Zoarces americanus'' ( Bloch and Schneider, 1801) - ocean pout * ''Zoarces andriashevi'' Parin, Grigoryev & Karmovskaya, 2005 * ''Zoarces elongatus'' Kner, 1868 * ''Zoarces fedorov ...

Zoarcidae
The eelpouts are the ray-finned fish family (biology), family Zoarcidae. As the common name suggests, they are somewhat eel-like in appearance. All of the roughly 300 species are ocean, marine and mostly bottom-dwelling, some at great depths. Eelpouts are predominantly found in the Northern Hemisphere. The arctic, north pacific and north Atlantic oceans have the highest concentration of species, however species are found around the globe. They are conventionally placed in the "perciform" assemblage; in fact, the Zoarcoidei seem to be specialized members of the Gasterosteiformes-Scorpaeniformes group of Acanthopterygii. The largest member of the family is ''Zoarces americanus'', which may reach 1.1 m in length. Other notable genera include ''Lycodapus'' and ''Gymnelus''. Taxonomy The eelpout family was first proposed as the family Zoarchidae in 1839 by the English naturalist William John Swainson but the spelling was changed to Zoarcidae after the spelling of the genus Zoarces w ...

Zoarces Viviparus
The viviparous eelpout (''Zoarces viviparus''), also known as the, viviparous blenny and European eelpout is species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Zoarcidae, the eelpouts. It is notable for being ovoviviparous and gives birth to live larvae (hence the description "mother of eels"). It is a common soup ingredient in Mediterranean countries. The bones are of greenish colour, due to a harmless pigment. Their skin is slimy and the colour is variable. Taxonomy The viviparous eelpout was first formally described as ''Blennius viviparus'' by Carl Linnaeus in the 10th edition of his ''Systema Naturae'' with its type locality given as "European seas". In 1829, the French zoologist Georges Cuvier proposed the genus ''Zoarces'' for the eelpouts and subsequently ''B, viviparus'' was descignated as the type species of ''Zoarces'', possibly by David Starr Jordan in 1917/ The specific name ''viviparus'' means "giving birth to live young", although the species is ovovivipa ...

Ocean Pout
The ocean pout (''Zoarces americanus'') is an eelpout in the family Zoarcidae. It is found in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of New England and eastern Canada. The fish has antifreeze proteins in its blood, giving it the ability to survive in near-freezing waters. Taxonomy The ocean pout was first formally described in 1801 by the German naturalists Marcus Elieser Bloch and Johann Gottlob Theaenus Schneider with its type locality given as "American seas". It is one of six species in the genus ''Zoarces'', the only genus in the subfamily Zoarcinae which is one of four subfamilies in the eelpout family Zoarcidae. Description The ocean pout has an elongated, tapering body with a wide mouth with fleshy lips, the upper lip protruding further than the lower. This species varies in color from yellow through to reddish brown and to grayish-=green and is marked with a series of cross like markings running the length of the eel-like body. There is a dark brown line on each ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pleistocene
The Pleistocene ( , often referred to as the ''Ice age'') is the geological Epoch (geology), epoch that lasted from about 2,580,000 to 11,700 years ago, spanning the Earth's most recent period of repeated glaciations. Before a change was finally confirmed in 2009 by the International Union of Geological Sciences, the cutoff of the Pleistocene and the preceding Pliocene was regarded as being 1.806 million years Before Present (BP). Publications from earlier years may use either definition of the period. The end of the Pleistocene corresponds with the end of the last glacial period and also with the end of the Paleolithic age used in archaeology. The name is a combination of Ancient Greek grc, label=none, πλεῖστος, pleīstos, most and grc, label=none, καινός, kainós (latinized as ), 'new'. At the end of the preceding Pliocene, the previously isolated North and South American continents were joined by the Isthmus of Panama, causing Great American Interchang ...
