Actinopterygii
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.
See Vellitor and Actinopterygii
Cirrus (biology)
In biology, a cirrus (cirri,, from the Latin cirrus meaning a curl-like tuft or fringe) is a long, thin structure in an animal similar to a tentacle but generally lacking the tentacle's strength, flexibility, thickness, and sensitivity.
See Vellitor and Cirrus (biology)
Cottidae
The Cottidae are a family of fish in the superfamily Cottoidea, the sculpins.
Cottinae
Cottinae is a subfamily of ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Cottidae, the typical sculpins.
David Starr Jordan

Demersal fish
Demersal fish, also known as groundfish, live and feed on or near the bottom of seas or lakes (the demersal zone).
See Vellitor and Demersal fish
Dunnart
Dunnart (from Noongar donat) is a common name for species of the genus Sminthopsis, narrow-footed marsupials the size of a European mouse.

Family (biology)
Family (familia,: familiae) is one of the nine major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy.
See Vellitor and Family (biology)
Fish fin
Fins are moving appendages protruding from the body of fish that interact with water to generate thrust and help the fish swim.
Fish measurement
Fish measurement is the measuring of individual fish and various parts of their anatomies, for data used in many areas of ichthyology, including taxonomy and fishery biology.
See Vellitor and Fish measurement
Fishes of the World
Fishes of the World is a standard reference for the systematics of fishes.
See Vellitor and Fishes of the World
Genus
Genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family as used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses.
Ichthyology
Ichthyology is the branch of zoology devoted to the study of fish, including bony fish (Osteichthyes), cartilaginous fish (Chondrichthyes), and jawless fish (Agnatha).
International Code of Zoological Nomenclature
The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN) is a widely accepted convention in zoology that rules the formal scientific naming of organisms treated as animals.
See Vellitor and International Code of Zoological Nomenclature
Jeju Island
Jeju Island (Jeju/) is South Korea's largest island, covering an area of, which is 1.83% of the total area of the country.
John Gould
John Gould (14 September 1804 – 3 February 1881) was an English ornithologist who published monographs on birds, illustrated by plates produced by his wife, Elizabeth Gould, and several other artists, including Edward Lear, Henry Constantine Richter, Joseph Wolf and William Matthew Hart.
John O. Westwood
John Obadiah Westwood (22 December 1805 – 2 January 1893) was an English entomologist and archaeologist also noted for his artistic talents.

Korea Strait
The Korea Strait is a sea passage in East Asia between Korea and Japan, connecting the East China Sea, the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan in the northwest Pacific Ocean.
Pacific Ocean
The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of Earth's five oceanic divisions.

Podabrus
Podabrus is a genus of soldier beetles in the family Cantharidae.
Psychrolutidae
The fish family Psychrolutidae (commonly known as blobfishes, toadfishes, flathead sculpins, or tadpole sculpins) contains over 35 recognized species in 8 genera.
See Vellitor and Psychrolutidae
Sculpin
A sculpin is a type of fish that belongs to the superfamily Cottoidea in the order Scorpaeniformes.Kane, E. A. and T. E. Higham. (2012). Zoology (Jena) 115(4), 223-32. As of 2006, this superfamily contains 7 families, 94 genera, and 387 species. Sculpins occur in many types of habitat, including ocean and freshwater zones.
Species description
A species description is a formal scientific description of a newly encountered species, typically articulated through a scientific publication.
See Vellitor and Species description
Subfamily
In biological classification, a subfamily (Latin: subfamilia, plural subfamiliae) is an auxiliary (intermediate) taxonomic rank, next below family but more inclusive than genus.
Type species
In zoological nomenclature, a type species (species typica) is the species name with which the name of a genus or subgenus is considered to be permanently taxonomically associated, i.e., the species that contains the biological type specimen (or specimens).
