Biology:Green spotted puffer
From HandWiki
Short description: Common name for several species of fish
A green spotted puffer may be one of several different species of Asian fresh or brackish water pufferfish in the genus Dichotomyctere (formerly Tetraodon), including:
- Dichotomyctere fluviatilis, sometimes called the green, Ceylon, or topaz pufferfish[1]
- Dichotomyctere nigroviridis[1]
- Dichotomyctere sabahensis, sometimes called the Sabahensis puffer[2]
Distinguishing these species is difficult,[1] in part because each species is highly variable in colouration.[2] Scientists working on these pufferfish as genomic lab animals consider it impossible to identify these species 100% reliably using colouration alone,[3] and tropical fish retailers commonly confuse them.[3]
