Leiodon Dapsilis both include it within ''Leiodon''. It was first described by Gilbert Whitley in 1943, from a specimen collected from the ''Leiodon dapsilis'', known as the plentiful toby, is a species of pufferfish in the family Tetraodontidae. It is native to the Western Pacific, where it is endemic to Australia. It is a tropical fish found in both marine and brackish environments, being known from coastal estuaries, mangrove swamps, and sandy areas in marine waters. The species is reported to be oviparous. ITIS lists this species as a member of the genus ''Chelonodon'', although WoRMS and FishBase FishBase is a global species database of fish species (specifically finfish). It is the largest and most extensively accessed online database on adult finfish on the web. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pufferfish
Tetraodontidae is a family of marine and freshwater fish in the order Tetraodontiformes. The family includes many familiar species variously called pufferfish, puffers, balloonfish, blowfish, blowers, blowies, bubblefish, globefish, swellfish, toadfish, toadies, toadle, honey toads, sugar toads, and sea squab. They are morphologically similar to the closely related porcupinefish, which have large external spines (unlike the thinner, hidden spines of the Tetraodontidae, which are only visible when the fish have puffed up). The majority of pufferfish species are toxic, with some among the most poisonous vertebrates in the world. In certain species, the internal organs, such as the liver, and sometimes the skin, contain mucus tetrodotoxin, and are highly toxic to most animals when eaten; nevertheless, the meat of some species is considered a delicacy in Japan (as 河豚, pronounced ''fugu''), Korea (as 복, ''bok'', or 복어, ''bogeo''), and China (as 河豚, ''hétún'') w ...
