  1   I,  1  |             there are many species of fishes and of birds.~Within the

  3   I,  1  |               swim, as, for instance, fishes, molluscs, and crustaceans,
  4   I,  1  |           live in water many kinds of fishes are gregarious, such as
  5   I,  5  |             have winglets or fins, as fishes: and of these some have
  6   I,  5  |              the sting-ray, but these fishes swim actually by the undulatory
  7   I,  5  |             so likewise have all such fishes as have not their flat surfaces
  8   I,  5  |              two feet, quadrupeds and fishes severally with four feet

 10   I,  6  |             are hair-coated, and some fishes also are viviparous.~All
 11   I,  16 |               particularly visible in fishes,-for they lie nearer than

 15  II,  10 |               For, as a general rule, fishes have a prickly tongue, not
 16  II,  10 |      movements; though there are some fishes that present a smooth undifferentiated

 20  II,  13 |        Ribbon-fish. Some of the lanky fishes have no fins at all, such
 21  II,  13 |     unprotected by a cover. And those fishes that have coverings or opercula

 24  II,  13 |              simple. And, again, some fishes have few gills, and others
 25  II,  13 |           number of gills as found in fishes.~Again, fishes differ from
 26  II,  13 |               found in fishes.~Again, fishes differ from other animals
 27  II,  13 |              among the smooth-skinned fishes are included the conger,
 28  II,  13 |               eel, and the tunny.~All fishes are saw-toothed excepting
 29  II,  13 |               so firmly attached that fishes in many instances seem to

 31  II,  13 |            ears nor nostrils; but all fishes are furnished with eyes,
 32  II,  13 |          passages indicative of them.~Fishes without exception are supplied
 33  II,  13 |          oviparous, but cartilaginous fishes are all viviparous, with
 34  II,  14 |          found in very deep water.~Of fishes whose habitat is in the

 36  II,  15 |               gall-bladder. Birds and fishes all have the organ, as also
 37  II,  15 |               a lesser extent. But of fishes some have the organ close

 39  II,  15 |          great a relative size. Other fishes have the organ close to
 40  II,  17 |              lesser; but in the large fishes the duct at the pointed
 41  II,  17 | white-coloured and exceedingly thick. Fishes in some few cases have an

 45  II,  17 |               no testicles, but, like fishes, has two ducts converging
 46  II,  17 |            off, will grow again.~With fishes the properties of the gut

 49  II,  17 |             also in the dorado. These fishes differ also from one another
 50  II,  17 |            many and another few. Some fishes are entirely without the
 51  II,  17 |               situated high up, as in fishes, but low down towards the
 52 III,  1  |          freely suspended, as in man.~Fishes, then, are devoid of testicles,
 53 III,  1  |          differences observed in male fishes of diverse species, the
 54 III,  1  |                and, as in the case of fishes, the two ducts coalesce
 55 III,  1  |              The ducts in the case of fishes and in biped and quadruped
 56 III,  1  |           testicles. And just as with fishes the male sperm is found

 63 III,  7  |             as fishes; for viviparous fishes, such as the cartilaginous
 64 III,  7  |         property has been observed in fishes, that in some of them there
 65 III,  10 |           have horn-like tessellates; fishes, and fishes only, have scales-that
 66 III,  10 |              tessellates; fishes, and fishes only, have scales-that is,
 67 III,  10 |        scales-that is, such oviparous fishes as have the crumbling egg
 68 III,  10 |              or roe. For of the lanky fishes, the conger has no such

 71 III,  17 |              becomes fatty, as, among fishes, is the case with the selachia,
 72 III,  20 |               are designated thori in fishes.~Whatever animals have milk,
 73  IV,  8  |          aquatic red-blooded animals, fishes possess the organ of taste,
 74  IV,  8  |            There is no doubt but that fishes have the sense of taste,
 75  IV,  8  |              in special flavours; and fishes freely take the hook if
 76  IV,  8  |          eating of food of this kind. Fishes have no visible organs for
 77  IV,  8  |               gills; but for all this fishes undoubtedly hear and smell.
 78  IV,  8  |             enclosed a shoal of these fishes with a ring of their canoes,
 79  IV,  8  |              it is quite obvious that fishes can hear; and indeed some
 80  IV,  8  |               And, by the way, of all fishes the quickest of hearing
 81  IV,  8  |         sciaena, and such like. Other fishes are less quick of hearing,
 82  IV,  8  |               smell. Thus, as a rule, fishes will not touch a bait that
 83  IV,  8  |          smell; and, by the way, some fishes are attracted by malodorous
 84  IV,  8  |         excrement. Again, a number of fishes live in caves; and accordingly
 85  IV,  8  |           thereof. As a general rule, fishes are especially attracted

 88  IV,  9  |            and the sciaena (for these fishes make a grunting kind of
 89  IV,  9  |           apparent voice in all these fishes is a sound caused in some

 91  IV,  10 |             of water animals, such as fishes, molluscs, crustaceans,
 92  IV,  10 |            more reasonably infer that fishes sleep. Very often it is
 93  IV,  10 |          snoring.~Molluscs sleep like fishes, and crustaceans also. It

130  VI,  10 |           been previously stated that fishes are not all oviparous. Fishes
131  VI,  10 |         fishes are not all oviparous. Fishes of the cartilaginous genus
132  VI,  10 |          oviparous. And cartilaginous fishes are first oviparous internally
133  VI,  10 |      fishing-frog being an exception.~Fishes also, as was above stated,
134  VI,  10 |         however, in the cartilaginous fishes differs in this respect

144  VI,  11 |               fact is that in certain fishes at certain times these organs

202 VIII,  2 |                for, be it remembered, fishes have their stomachs close
203 VIII,  2 |         furnished with a gullet.~Some fishes then, as has been stated,
