3 results about "Snakehead" patented technology

The snakeheads are members of the freshwater perciform fish family Channidae, native to parts of Africa and Asia. These elongated, predatory fish are distinguished by their long dorsal fins, large mouths, and shiny teeth. They breathe air with gills, which allows them to migrate short distances over land. They have suprabranchial organs, which are primitive forms of labyrinth organs, that develop when they grow older. The three extant genera are Channa and Aenigmachanna in Asia and Parachanna in Africa, consisting of more than 50 species.
