Lateolabrax
''Lateolabrax'' is a genus of commercial fisheries, commercially important ray-finned fishes known as the Asian seabasses. It is the only genus in the family Lateolabracidae. This genus is native to the coastal waters of the western Pacific Ocean. This genus has also been included in family Moronidae (temperate basses) and may be nested within the Polyprionidae. One potential fossil genus is also known in ''Avitolabrax'' from the earliest Miocene of Japan, which may be ancestral to ''Lateolabrax''.

Japanese Seabass
The Japanese sea bass (''Lateolabrax japonicus'') is a species of catadromous marine ray-finned fish from the Asian sea bass family Lateolabracidae which is found in the Western Pacific. Japanese names In the Kanto area (Eastern Japan), including Shizuoka Prefecture, it is called Seigo when under 25cm. At 3 years of age, when it has attained a length of nearly 60cm, it is called Fukko or Suzuki. In Kansai (Western Japan) it is called Seigo, Hane, and .

Lateolabrax Latus
The blackfin seabass (''Lateolabrax latus'') is a Perciforme fish in the family lateolabracidae, found primarily in the shallow waters of the Pacific coast of Asia, in Japan and in South Korea. There are only two species in the genus Lateolabrax, known as Asian seabasses. As a perciforme, the blackfin seabass is among the largest order of fish in the ocean. Blackfin seabass live in shallow, tidal or rocky surf zones, partially as a way to escape competition with the Japanese seabass ''Lateolabrax japonicus'', a close and almost identical relative of theirs, and partially for the breeding opportunity in brackish water by the mouths of rivers. Morphology The blackfin seabass is a perciforme fish, or perch-like fish; it has a long, silver, elongated body, and a slight fork in the tail. The blackfin seabass is often compared to the Atlantic Striped Bass in size and appearance; Both bass species have a lower jaw which protrudes over the upper jaw, and similar dorsal and anal fins, but ...

Avitolabrax
''Avitolabrax'' is an extinct genus of marine ray-finned fish that lived during the early part of the Miocene epoch. It has a single known species, ''A. denticulatus'', from the Siramizu Formation of Fukushima, Japan. Initially described as a " serranid" when that family was thought to be more expansive, later studies suggest that it may be ancestral to the extant genus ''Lateolabrax ''Lateolabrax'' is a genus of commercial fisheries, commercially important ray-finned fishes known as the Asian seabasses.

Moronidae
The Moronidae is a family of percomorph fishes, commonly called the temperate basses, in the order Moroniformes. These fishes are found in the freshwaters of North America and the coastal waters of the North Atlantic. Taxonomy Moronidae was first proposed as a family in 1896 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and Barton Warren Evermann. The 5th edition of the ''Fishes of the World'' classifies this family in the order Moroniformes with the Ephippidae and Drepaneidae. Other authorities place the Ephippidae and Drepaneidae in the order Ephippiformes with the Moronidae classified as ''incertae sedis'' in the series Eupercaria. Other authorities classify all three families in the Moroniformes ''sensu'' ''Fishes of the World'' in the Acanthuriformes. Genera Moronidae basses are classified within the two living genera '' Morone'' and'' Dicentrarchus'' as follows: *'' Dicentrarchus'' **'' D. labrax'' - (European seabass) **'' D. punctatus'' - (spotted seabass) ...

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 ...

Commercial Fisheries
Commercial fishing is the activity of catching fish and other seafood for commercial profit, mostly from wild fisheries. It provides a large quantity of food to many countries around the world, but those who practice it as an industry must often pursue fish far into the ocean under adverse conditions. Large-scale commercial fishing is called industrial fishing. The major fishing industries are not only owned by major corporations but by small families as well. In order to adapt to declining fish populations and increased demand, many commercial fishing operations have reduced the sustainability of their harvest by fishing further down the food chain. This raises concern for fishery managers and researchers, who highlight how further they say that for those reasons, the sustainability of the marine ecosystems could be in danger of collapsing. Commercial fishermen harvest a wide variety of animals. However, a very small number of species support the majority of the world's fishe ...

Ray-finned Fish
Actinopterygii (; ), members of which are known as ray-finned fish or actinopterygians, is a class of bony fish that comprise over 50% of living vertebrate species. They are so called because of their lightly built fins made of webbings of skin supported by radially extended thin bony spines called '' lepidotrichia'', as opposed to the bulkier, fleshy lobed fins of the sister clade Sarcopterygii (lobe-finned fish). Resembling folding fans, the actinopterygian fins can easily change shape and wetted area, providing superior thrust-to-weight ratios per movement compared to sarcopterygian and chondrichthyian fins. The fin rays attach directly to the proximal or basal skeletal elements, the radials, which represent the articulation between these fins and the internal skeleton (e.g., pelvic and pectoral girdles). The vast majority of actinopterygians are teleosts. By species count, they dominate the subphylum Vertebrata, and constitute nearly 99% of the over 30,000 extant ...

Pacific Ocean
The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of Earth's five Borders of the oceans, oceanic divisions. It extends from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Southern Ocean, or, depending on the definition, to Antarctica in the south, and is bounded by the continents of Asia and Australia in the west and the Americas in the east. At in area (as defined with a southern Antarctic border), the Pacific Ocean is the largest division of the World Ocean and the hydrosphere and covers approximately 46% of Earth's water surface and about 32% of the planet's total surface area, larger than its entire land area ().Pacific Ocean .

He was a specialist in the anatomy, classification, and distribution of fishes, with a special interest in tropical marine shorefishes. He published numerous scientific studies on these subjects; also, a popular book called "Sharks in Question, the Smithsonian Answer Book" 1989. Education Springer gained his first degree, B.A. in biology at Emory University in 1948. His M.S. in botany at the University of Miami in 1954 was followed by his Ph.D. in zoology at the University of Texas in 1957. Research interests Springer's research interests included the classification, evolution, and biogeography of fishes, especially marine fishes and notably Blennioid fishes. He was also interested in late 19th and 20th Century scientific illustrators of fishes such as Charles B ...
