Sebastolobini
Sebastini is a tribe of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the subfamily Sebastinae of the family Scorpaenidae in the order Scorpaeniformes. Many species have the common name thornyhead. Taxonomy Sebastolobini was first formally recognised as a grouping in 1943 by the Japanese ichthyologist Kiyomatsu Matsubara. Authorities who treat the clade referred to as Sebastinae as a family treat the Sebastolobini as a subfamily and call this grouping Sebastolobinae. Genera Sebastini contains three genera with 11 species, most in ''Trachyscorpia''. * ''Adelosebastes'' Eschmeyer, T.

Trachyscorpia
''Trachyscorpia'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the subfamily Sebastinae, the rockfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. The species in this genus are found in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans. Taxonomy ''Trachyscorpia'' was first described as a genus by the Lithuanian-born American ichthyologist Isaac Ginsburg in 1953 with ''Scorpaena cristulata'', a species described by the American ichthyologists George Brown Goode and Tarleton Hoffman Bean in 1896 from off Georgia, designated as its type species. The generic name, ''Trachyscorpia'' is a compound of ''trachys'', meaning "coarse" or "rough", and ''scorpia'', which means “scorpion”, the first part is a reference to the ctenoid scales of the type species and the second is derived from ''Scorpaena'' the original genus of ''T. cristulata''. Species There are currently seven recognised species in this genus: * '' Trachyscorpia carnomagula'' Motomura, Last & Yearsley, 2007 (Deepsea Scorpionfis ...

Adelosebastes
''Adelosebastes'' is a monotypic genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the subfamily Sebastinae, the rockfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. The only species in this genus is ''Adelosebastes latens'', the Aleutian scorpionfish. It is found in the northern Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''Adelosebastes'' was formally described as a genus in 1979 by the ichthyologists William N. Eschmeyer, Tokiharu Abe and Soji Nakano when they described its only species''Adelosebastes latens''. ''A. latens'' was described from types collected at the Emperor Seamounts and the Aleutian Islands. The generic name ''Adelosebastes'' is a compound of ''adelos'' which means "unseen" in Greek, the allusion was not explained, it likely refers to this species occurring in the "poorly explored" Emperor Seamount Chain at depths of ; and ''Sebastes'', the type genus of the subfamily Sebastinae. The specific name, ''latens'', means secret in Latin Latin (, or , ) is a classical language belongi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sebastinae
Sebastinae is a subfamily of marine fish belonging to the family Scorpaenidae in the order Scorpaeniformes. Their common names include rockfishes, rock perches, ocean perches, sea perches, thornyheads, scorpionfishes, sea ruffes and rockcods. Despite the latter name, they are not closely related to the cods in the genus '' Gadus'', nor the rock cod, '' Lotella rhacina''. Taxonomy Sebastinae, or Sebastidae, was first formally recognised as a grouping in 1873 by the German naturalist Johann Jakob Kaup. Some authorities recognise this family as distinct from Scorpaenidae. FishBase, a finfish database generated by a consortium of academic institutions, does, but the United States Federal government's Integrated Taxonomic Information System and the 5th Edition of ''Fishes of the World'' do not, FotW classify it as a subfamily of the Scorpaenidae. Tribes and genera Sebastinae is divided into two tribes and seven genera: * Tribe Sebastini Kaup, 1873 ** '' Helicolenus'' Goode & B ...

Scorpaenidae
The Scorpaenidae (also known as scorpionfish) are a family of mostly marine fish that includes many of the world's most venomous species. As their name suggests, scorpionfish have a type of "sting" in the form of sharp spines coated with venomous mucus. The family is a large one, with hundreds of members. They are widespread in tropical and temperate seas but mostly found in the Indo-Pacific. They should not be confused with the cabezones, of the genus '' Scorpaenichthys'', which belong to a separate, though related, family, Cottidae. Taxonomy Scorpaenidae was described as a family in 1826 by the French naturalist Antoine Risso. The family is included in the suborder Scorpaenoidei of the order Scorpaeniformes in the 5th Edition of ''Fishes of the World'' but other authorities place it in the Perciformes either in the suborder Scorpaenoidei or the superfamily Scorpaenoidea. The subfamilies of this family are treated as valid families by some authorities. Subfamilies and tribe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sebastolobus
''Sebastolobus'', the thornyheads, is a genus of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the subfamily Sebastinae, the rockfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. These fishes are native to the northern and eastern Pacific Ocean. They are generally found in deep waters. Taxonomy ''Sebastolobus'' was first described as a genus by the American ichthyologist Theodore Gill in 1881 with ''Sebastes macrochir'', a species described, with its type locality given as Japan, by the German-born British ichthyologist and herpetologist Albert Gunther in 1877. It is the type genus of the tribe Sebastolobini, on of two in the Sebastinae, a subfamily of the family Scorpaenidae. The generic name is a compound of '' Sebastes'', the original genus of the type species, and ''lobus'', “lobed”, a reference to the lower rays of the pectoral fin Fins are distinctive anatomical features composed of bony spines or rays protruding from the body of a fish. They are covered with skin and joined ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sebastolobus Altivelis
''Sebastolobus altivelis'', the longspine thornyhead, is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the subfamily Sebastinae, the rockfishes, part of the family Scorpaenidae. It is found in deep waters of the northeastern Pacific Ocean. Longspine thornyhead are similar in appearance to shortspine thornyhead though they don't grow as large and are typically found in deeper water. Taxonomy ''Sebastolobus altivelis'' was first formally described in 1896 by the American ichthyologist Charles Henry Gilbert with the type locality given as being south of the Alaskan Peninsula at Albatross station 3338 at a depth 625 fathoms. The specific name ''altivelis'' is a compound of ''altus'' which means "high" and ''velum'' meaning"sail", an allusion to the taller dorsal fin spines than '' S. macrochir''. Description ''Sebastolobus altivelis'' has a moderately compressed, elongate body with a relatively large, pointed head, The spiny head is armed with strong nasal, preocular, supra ...
