The spread of the caudal fins mimics butterflies underwater. | ![]() |
The Meteor goldfish is a strange-looking variety that has been developed by specialist breeders of fancy goldfish. It has no tail fin, hence its name.[1][2] | ||

The Curled-gill or Reversed-gill goldfish is another uncommon variety of fancy goldfish that has been developed by specialist enthusiasts. It owes its name to the out-turned appearance of its gill covers.[2][7] | ![]() |
The Tamasaba or Sabao is an uncommon Japanese variety of goldfish with a body shaped similar to the Ryukin and a very long, flowing, single tail that is similar to that of a mackerel, hence its other name, Mackerel Tail. | The Tosakin or curly fantail goldfish is a very distinctive breed of goldfish with a large tail fin that spreads out horizontally (like a fan) behind the fish. Though technically a divided tail, the two halves are attached at the center/middle forming a single fin. |

PLATY
[modifica | modifica wikitesto]Nel corso dei decenni sono state selezionate dagli allevatori decine di varietà, con caratteristiche ben definite[1]. Tuttavia la facilità di riproduzione permette un continuo cambiamento rispetto agli standard fissati dagli allevatori.
LISTA PERSONE ANIMALI
[modifica | modifica wikitesto]Quando i biologi scoprono una nuova specie vivente, non è raro che dedichino questa specie ad una persona, così in nomeclatura possiamo trovare generi e specie identiche al loro eponimo, oppure al loro patronimico. I nomi scientifici sono genericamente pubblicati insieme allo studio della nuova specie in riviste specializzate, rispettando le regole grammaticali della lingua latina: i nomi derivati da nomi maschili finiscono in -i o -ii se al singolare, in -orum se al plurale, in -ae o -arum se il nome eponimo è femminile, rispettivamente singolare e plurale.
Questa lista comprende specie di pesci dedicate a persone o gruppi, ma esclude le specie e i generi dedicati a biologi e ittiologi, poichè questa è una pratica comunque estremamente diffusa nella nomeclatura.
