The Bering wolffish (''Anarhichas orientalis'') is a marine fish in the family Anarhichadidae, the "wolffish".〔http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=254511〕 ==Description== The Bering wolffish has an elongate and laterally compressed body, with a thin caudal peduncle. It has a steep snouth, and, like other wolffish, has long, canine teeth that protrude out past the tips of the jaws.〔http://publications.gc.ca/collections/Collection/CW69-14-355-2004E.pdf〕 It can grow to 112 cm and 15 kg in weight, is dark brown in colour and lacks any distinct markings other than some slight blotching or paleish marbling.〔http://www.polarlife.ca/organisms/fish/marine/wolffish/bering.htm〕 The head of juveniles may have multiple dark spots and four to five dark coloured longitudinal stripes on the upper body.〔http://publications.gc.ca/collections/Collection/CW69-14-355-2004E.pdf〕 The head length is approximately 19 to 21 percent of the total body length. This species differs from the five other species in the genus in having at least 53 anal rays, 81 to 86 dorsal fin spines, and more rounded, deeper caudal fins.〔http://publications.gc.ca/collections/Collection/CW69-14-355-2004E.pdf〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bering wolffish」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
