Potamarius
''Potamarius'' is a genus of sea catfishes. The three species in this genus exclusively inhabit fresh water in southern Mexico and Guatemala. The individual species have relatively small ranges. The highly endangered '' Paragenidens grandoculis'' of Brazil was long classified in ''Potamarius'', but a 2019 study has found it to belong in its own genus. Species There are currently three described species in this genus: * ''Potamarius izabalensis'' C. L. Hubbs & R. R. Miller, 1960 * ''Potamarius nelsoni'' ( Evermann & Goldsborough, 1902) (Lacandon sea-catfish) * ''Potamarius usumacintae The Usumacinta sea catfish [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Potamarius izabalensis'' is a species of catfish in the family Ariidae. It was described by Carl Leavitt Hubbs and Robert Rush Miller in 1960, originally under the genus ''Arius''. It is known to inhabit Izabal Lake in Guatemala, and possibly also inhabits the Polochic River.

Paragenidens
''Paragenidens'' is a monotypic genus of sea catfishes containing just one species, ''Paragenidens grandoculis.'' This species was formerly classified under the genus ''Potamarius'' until a 2019 study found it to be wholly distinct from it. It is endemic to Brazil, where it is known from the Doce and the Paraíba do Sul rivers and their mouths. It is highly endangered and was not seen for over 50 years until it was rediscovered during fieldwork for the 2019 study that reclassified it. It is now only known from Lagoa Nova in the municipality of Linhares in Espirito Santo ''Espirito'' (Brazilian for "Spirit") is the second album by Lawson Rollins.

Sea Catfish
The Ariidae or ariid catfish are a family of catfish that mainly live in marine waters with many freshwater and brackish water species. They are found worldwide in tropical to warm temperate zones. The family includes about 143 species. Taxonomy The relationships of this family are not yet clear. Two of the genera, ''Gogo'' and '' Ancharius'', have been moved to a separate family called Anchariidae. The Ariidae are divided into three subfamilies: '' Galeichthys'' is the only genus classified in the subfamily Galeichthyinae and similarly '' Bagre'' is the only genus in the subfamily Bagreinae, while the rest of the genera are classified in the subfamily Ariinae. Previously, the family Ariidae has been grouped in the superfamily Doradoidea, but then it was moved into Bagroidea (along with Austroglanididae, Claroteidae, Schilbeidae, Pangasiidae, Bagridae, Malapteruridae, and Pimelodidae. It has also been classified in a superfamily Arioidea containing Ariidae and Anchariid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Catfish Genera
Catfish (or catfishes; order Siluriformes or Nematognathi) are a diverse group of ray-finned fish. Named for their prominent barbels, which resemble a cat's whiskers, catfish range in size and behavior from the three largest species alive, the Mekong giant catfish from Southeast Asia, the wels catfish of Eurasia, and the piraíba of South America, to detritivores (species that eat dead material on the bottom), and even to a tiny parasitic species commonly called the candiru, ''Vandellia cirrhosa''. Neither the armour-plated types nor the naked types have scales. Despite their name, not all catfish have prominent barbels or "whiskers". Members of the Siluriformes order are defined by features of the skull and swimbladder. Catfish are of considerable commercial importance; many of the larger species are farmed or fished for food. Many of the smaller species, particularly the genus '' Corydoras'', are important in the aquarium hobby. Many catfish are nocturnal, [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
