Laubuka trevori predorsal scales; aw s well as 5+4+2 teeth on the fifth ceratobranchial bone. "L. trevori" has 14½–15½ branched rays in its anal fin, a relatively short pelvic fin which is about a fifth as long as tits standard length and it has two stripes running along its body: one a golden and the other a blue-green stripe which runs from behind the operculum to the peduncle of the caudal fin which is broken and less distinct towards the head than the golden stripe. Laubuka trevori Laubuka trevori is a species of small fish of the minnow and carp family, Cyprinidae,
Operculum (gastropod) to push into the substrate in a leaping form of locomotion. Virtually all pulmonate snails are inoperculate, i.e. they do not have an operculum, with the exception of the Amphiboloidea. However, some terrestrial pulmonate species are capable of secreting an epiphragm, a temporary structure that can in some cases serve some of the same functions as an operculum. The epiphragm may be distinguished from the true operculum by its homogeneity and want of growth marks. In ammonites (extinct shelled cephalopods), a calcareous structure known as the aptychus (plural aptychi) existed. When these were first described they were thought to be
