The family Aphredoderidae consists of a single living species, the pirate perch (Nelson 1994). The pirate perch is distributed in the eastern United States, primarily in
the lowlands of Atlantic drainages from Long Island southward, the Gulf of Mexico Slope, the Mississippi Valley, and part of the Great Lakes drainage. The family is characterized by having a large mouth, ctenoid scales, a single dorsal fin with both spines and rays, thoracic pelvic fins, and the anus and
urogenital openings between the gill membranes. [ eng ] |
