Hi #fishsky - calling all fans of the fish Lota lota or #burbot. What common names do you know for this species (in any language) and why is it called that? I have heard some very funny common names in US English and German for the species and would LOVE to know some more! #fishtaxonomy
Phoebe wearing a white fluffy jacket (it’s night time, it is clearly very cold) is holding a gorgeous fish in front of her. It is mottled yellow and black and has a long tail and has inspired many folk names.

@solomonrdavid.bsky.social in honour of #GARWEEK the ultimate zoo has opened in Berlin…!
A sign above a shop reads GAR ZOO.  We hope this is really a gar zoo and not due to the fact the lights have failed on “ten &”

Merry (freshwater) Mega(fauna) Christmas! 🎄
An arapaima is wearing a Santa hat. A burbot is wearing a red hat with holly. A Chinese giant salamander is wearing reindeer horns and has a Christmas pudding. These freshwater megafauna are having a mega Christmas party.

I guess Bob got bitten… #ichthyology #fish #fishscience
A page from the website fishbase where it reads “may bite when handled (Bob, pers. comm.) at the top is a picture of the trout Oncorhynchus gilae giving “out to get Bob” vibes.

Crawling out of the muck of what was once twitter, hoping to find fellows lovers of inland waters and real-world muddy environments over here: I am a researcher working on conservation and cultural significance of freshwater megafauna ie big aquatic animals like crocs, fish, dolphins and turtles 🎏
