Verilus Sordidus
''Verilus sordidus'' is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Malakichthyidae. It is native to the central western Atlantic Ocean. It is found in the waters off Cuba to Colombia and Venezuela where it is found at depths shallower than over rocky bottoms.Yamanoue, Y. (2016): Revision of the genus ''Verilus'' (Perciformes: Acropomatidae) with a description of a new species. ''Journal of Fish Biology, 89 (5): 2375–2398.'' This species grows to a length of fish measurement, TL though most do not exceed . It can be distinguished from other fish in its genus by several characters, including villiform teeth on the upper jaw and conical teeth on the lower, with large canine tooth, canine teeth, and the number of spines and rays in its fins.Yamanoue, Y., et al.

Fish Described In 1860
A fish (: fish or fishes) is an aquatic, anamniotic, gill-bearing vertebrate animal with swimming fins and a hard skull, but lacking limbs with digits. Fish can be grouped into the more basal jawless fish and the more common jawed fish, the latter including all living cartilaginous and bony fish, as well as the extinct placoderms and acanthodians. In a break to the long tradition of grouping all fish into a single class (Pisces), modern phylogenetics views fish as a paraphyletic group. Most fish are cold-blooded, their body temperature varying with the surrounding water, though some large active swimmers like white shark and tuna can hold a higher core temperature. Many fish can communicate acoustically with each other, such as during courtship displays. The study of fish is known as ichthyology. The earliest fish appeared during the Cambrian as small filter feeders; they continued to evolve through the Paleozoic, diversifying into many forms. The earliest fish wi ...
