| Fish can be broken down into six distinct sections which are fins, skin, vertebrae, jaw, organs, and reproductive system. So, I will endeavour to give as much information as I can and will be updating this page for awhile. Let’s start with the fins. |
|
Fins The first distinctive feature of a fish are the fins. These are made up of bony spines which protude from the fishes body and are joined together in a webbed fashion and covered with skin or appear as a flipper. The purpose of the fins are to aid in the ability of a fish to swim. They can also be used for gliding or crawling. |

| Abdominal Pelvics: | Pelvic fins located on the abdomen far behind the pectoral fins; pelvic bones do not attach to pectoral girdle. |
| Accessory Pelvic Appendage: | A tapered fleshy lobe above the base of the pelvic fin. |
