Peristediidae
Peristediidae, the armored sea robins or armoured gurnards, is a Family (biology), family of Actinopterygii, ray-finned fishes belonging to the suborder Platycephaloidei in the Order (biology), order Scorpaeniformes. They are found in the deep water in the tropical and warm temperate of the world's oceans. Taxonomy Peristediidae was first proposed as a family in 1883 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and Charles Henry Gilbert. The 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies the family within the Platycephaloidei, which is a suborder of the order Scorpaeniformes. Other authorities differ and do not consider the Scorpaeniformes to be a valid order because the Perciformes is not monophyletic without the taxa within the Scorpaeniformes being included within it. These authorities consider the Peristediidae to belong to the suborder Triglioidei, along with the family Triglidae, within the Perciformes. The family Peristediidae is included in the Triglidae as the sub ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Peristedion Paucibarbiger
''Peristedion'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family (biology), family Peristediidae, the armoured gurnards or armored sea robins. These fishes are found in Atlantic Ocean, Atlantic and Indo-West Pacific ocean waters. Taxonomy Peristedion was first described as a genus in 1801 by the French naturalist Bernard Germain de Lacépède when he species description, described ''Peristedion marmalat'' from the Mediterranean Sea and the Moluccas. In 1826 Jean Baptiste Bory de Saint-Vincent designated ''P. marmalat'' as the type species of the genus. ''P. marmalat'' is now treated as a junior synonym of Carl Linnaeus's ''Trigla cataphracta'', which he described from the Mediterranean Sea off southern France. Within the family Peristediidae there are 2 clades. One, which contains Peristedion, is a Monotypic taxon, monotypic clade, while the other clade is made up of the remaining 5 genera of the Peristediidae. The name of the genus ''Peristedion'' is a combination o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Paraheminodus
''Paraheminodus'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Peristediidae, the armoured gurnards or armored searobins. These fishes are found in the western Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''Paraheminodus'' was first described as a genus in 1958 by the Japanese ichthyologist Toshiji Kamohara with ''Satyrichthys laticephalus'', which Kamohara had described in 1952, with off Mimase in Kochi Prefecture in Japan as its type locality, designated at its type species, although the genus was described as monospecific. The genus is classified within the family Peristediidae. Within the family Peristediidae there are 2 clades, this genus is in the clade consisting of 5 genera, with the nominate genus ''Peristedion'' in the other clade. The name of the genus ''Paraheminodus'' means "near '' Heminodus''" from which this genus differs by having well developed barbels on its chin. Species There are currently 4 recognized species in this genus: * '' Paraheminodus kamoharai'' Ka ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Heminodus
''Heminodus'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Peristediidae, the armoured gurnards or armored sea robins. It is currently considered to be a monotypic genus, its only species being ''Heminodus philippinus''. Taxonomy ''Heminodus'' was first described as a genus in 1917 by the American ichthyologist Hugh McCormick Smith when he was describing its only species ''H. phillipinus'' with its type locality being given as the Mindanao Sea off Tawi-tawi in the Philippines. Specimens collected in the eastern Indian Ocean off Western Australia between 1989 and 1991 were identified as probably belonging to the genus Hemidonus but were not identified to species, so may have been ''H. phillipinus'' or a new undescribed species. The genus name was not explained by Smith but means "half knot", may be an allusion to the short and spiny rostral processes as compared to the long and flat processes on the jaggedhead gurnard (''Gargariscus prionocephalus'').

Scalicus
''Scalicus'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Peristediidae, the armoured gurnards or armored searobins. These fishes are found in the Indo-Pacific region. Taxonomy ''Scalicus'' was first described as a monotypic genus in 1923 by the American ichthyologist David Starr Jordan with the newly described ''Peristedion amiscus'', designated as its type species. Within the family Peristediidae there are 2 clades, this genus is in the clade consisting of 5 genera, with the nominate genus ''Peristedion'' in the other clade. Jordan did not explain the genus name's etymology but it may be from ''skallo'' meaning " hoe", an allusion top the shovel shaped snout of the type species. Species ''Scalicus'' currently has 8 recognised species within it: * '' Scalicus amiscus'' D. S. Jordan & Starks, 1904 * '' Scalicus engyceros'' Günther, 1872 * '' Scalicus gilberti'' D. S. Jordan, 1921 * '' Scalicus hians'' C. H. Gilbert & Cramer, 1897 * '' Scalicus investigat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Satyrichthys
''Satyrichthys'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Peristediidae, the armoured gurnards or armored searobins. These fishes are found in the Indo-Pacific region. Taxonomy ''Satyrichthys'' was first described as a monotypic genus in 1873 by the German zoologist Johann Jakob Kaup with ''Peristethus rieffeli'' as its only species. Kaup had described P. reifeli in 1853 with iots type locality given as China. Within the family Peristediidae there are 2 clades, this genus is in the clade consisting of 5 genera, with the nominate genus ''Peristedion'' in the other clade. The name of the genus ''Satyrichtys'' was not explained by Kaup but it combines ''satyr'', meaning "god" or "demon", with ''ichthys'', meaning "fish", the first part may be an allusion to the two fork-shaped projections at the end of the snout of ''S. rieffeli'', resembling the horns depicted on demons. Species ''Satyrichthys'' currently contains 7 recognized species: * '' Satyrichthys clavila ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Triglidae
''Triglidae'', commonly known as gurnards or sea robins, are a Family (biology), family of bottom-feeding scorpaeniform ray-finned fish. The gurnards are distributed in temperate and tropical seas worldwide. Taxonomy ''Triglidae'' was first described as a Family (biology), family in 1815 by the French polymath and naturalist Constantine Samuel Rafinesque. In 1883 David Starr Jordan, Jordan and Charles Henry Gilbert, Gilbert formally designated ''Trigla lyra'', which had been Species description, described by Carl Linnaeus, Linnaeus in 1758, as the type species of the genus ''Trigla'' and so of the family Triglidae. The 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies this family within the suborder Platycephaloidei in the Order (biology), order Scorpaeniformes. Other authorities differ and do not consider the Scorpaeniformes to be a valid order because the Perciformes order is not monophyletic without the Taxon, taxa within the Scorpaeniformes being included.
