  1. siluriform fish

    Siluriform fish, also known as catfish, are a diverse group of ray-finned fish. They are named for their prominent barbels, which resemble a cat's whiskers. Catfish range in size and behavior from the three largest species alive, the Mekong giant catfish from Southeast Asia, the wels catfish of Eurasia, and the piraíba of South America, to tiny parasitic species commonly called candiru. Siluriform fish are characterized by a strong, hollow, bonified leading spine-like ray on their dorsal and pectoral fins, which can produce stinging protein in some species.
