Rhabdoblennius
''Rhabdoblennius'' is a genus of combtooth blennies found in the Pacific Ocean, mostly in the western Pacific. The name of this genus is derived from the Greek word ''rhabdos'' meaning "stick" or "rod" and ''blennius'' meaning "mucus", referring to the absence of scales on the body of blennies. Species There are currently five recognized species in this genus: * '' Rhabdoblennius nigropunctatus'' Bath, 2004 * '' Rhabdoblennius nitidus'' ( Günther, 1861) (Barred-chin blenny) * '' Rhabdoblennius papuensis'' Bath, 2004 * '' Rhabdoblennius rhabdotrachelus'' ( Fowler & Ball A ball is a round object (usually spherical, but sometimes ovoid) with several uses.

Combtooth Blenny
Combtooth blennies are blenny, blenniiformids; Percomorpha, percomorph marine fish of the family Blenniidae, part of the Order (biology), order Blenniiformes. They are the largest family of blennies with around 401 known species in 58 genera. Combtooth blennies are found in tropical and subtropical waters in the Atlantic Ocean, Atlantic, Pacific Ocean, Pacific and Indian Oceans; some species are also found in brackish and even freshwater environments. Description The body plan of the combtooth blennies is archetypal to all other blennioids; their blunt heads and eyes are large, with large continuous dorsal fins (which may have three to 17 spines). Their bodies are compressed, elongated, and scaleless; their small, slender pelvic fins (which are absent in only two species) are situated before their enlarged pectoral fins, and their tail fins are rounded. As their name would suggest, combtooth blennies are noted for the comb-like teeth lining their jaws. By far the largest species ...

Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...
