*Scientific Name: Xiphophorus maculatus Family- Poeciliidae. *Natural Habitat: The natural habitat for the Platy is found in Southern Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras. *Description: A member of live bearing Tooth carp family, Platies are now found in many hybrids and a wide variety of colors and fin forms.
The body and the broad, flat tail of the platypus are covered with dense, brown fur that traps a layer of insulating air to keep the animal warm. The fur is waterproof, and the texture is akin to that of a mole. The platypus uses its tail for storage of fat reserves (an adaptation also found in animals such as the Tasmanian devil and fat-tailed sheep). It has webbed feet and a large, rubbery duck-like snout.
