Sargassum fish Sargassum fish The sargassum fish, anglerfish, or frog fish ("Histrio histrio") is a frogfish of the family Antennariidae, the only species in its genus. It lives among "Sargassum" seaweed which floats in subtropical oceans. The scientific name comes from the Latin "histrio" meaning a stage player or actor, and refers to the fish's feeding behaviour. "Histrio histrio", a strange-looking fish, blends well with its surroundings in its seaweed habitat. It is laterally compressed and its length can reach . The colour of the body and the large oral cavity is very variable, but is usually mottled and spotted yellow, green,
Plant functional type key parameters are defined, such as fecundity, competitiveness, resorption (rate at which plant decays and returns nutrients to the soil after death), etc.; the value of each parameter is determined or inferred from observable characteristics such as plant height, leaf area, etc. Climatologists and ecologists struggle to determine which minimal set of plant characteristics best model the actual responses of the biosphere in response to climate changes. Plant functional type Plant functional types (PFTs) is a system used by climatologists to classify plants according to their physical, phylogenetic and phenological characteristics as part of an overall effort to develop a
