Noninidigenous fishes - Osphronemidae
The anabantoid family Osphronemidae comprises three species in one genus, all from Southeast Asia. The family is closely related to the Belontiidae and there is some question as to whether the two should be treated as separate groups. Giant gouramies are medium-sized fishes characterized by compressed bodies, long dorsal and anal fins, and filamentous pelvic rays that are used as feelers. [eng] |
