InterNevod: Ежи-рыбы (Diodontidae)
Шипы, покрывающие тело, короткие и неподвижные, но у родов двузубы (Diodon) и атопомиктеры (Atopomycterus) они сильно удлинены и подвижны у основания: при спавшихся воздушных мешках прилегают к телу, а при раздувании рыбы встают торчком, придавая ей столь своеобразный облик. Как это ни странно, но шипы рыб-ежей, казалось бы самой природой предназначенные для защиты, не имеют ядовитых желез. [rus]
