Although they combine the anatomy of many other creatures like a character from a child's book, seahorses are not legends or myths like mermaids. Seahorses are vertebrate fish. Technically, their taxanomic classification is the Kingdom Animalia , Phylum Chordata , Sub-phylum Vertebrata , Class Osteichthyes and Order Perciformes . They belong to the family Syngnathidae ( syn - together or with [Greek] and gnathos - jaw [Greek]) which includes seadragons, pipefishes and pipehorses. Seahorses make up the genus Hippocampus ( hippo - horse [Greek] and campos - sea animal [Greek]). They live in warm or temperate salt water off the coasts of Australia and the United States. They make their homes in reefs and seaweed.

It looks like a creature that could only exist in someone's imagination, and in fact there are few ocean creatures that can claim to influence cultures as much as the seahorse in areas such as writing, art and poetry. Seahorses are such masters of camouflage divers rarely see them, yet they are distributed worldwide in all but the coldest seas. Their instruments of deception include several strategies. Blotchy skin patterns coupled with an ability to change color help them blend in with their surroundings. They may grow extra skin "filaments" to imitate seaweed or seagrass growths. Encrusting animals such as bryozoans, or algae may be hosted on their skin. Seahorses may have tex Read More Go to Site Biogeography of Leafy Seadragon Votes:0 San Francisco State University Department of Geography Geography 316: Biogeography The Biogeography of the Leafy Seadragon ( Phycodurus eques ) by Gregor Fenton Gomory, student in Geography 316, Fall 1999 Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Actinopteri Order: Thoracostei Family: Syngnathidae Subfamily: Phyllopteryginae Genus: Phycodurus Species: Phycodurus eques Description of Species: The leafy seadragon, P. eques , is a spectacularly camouflaged fish found exclusively in the brown kelp beds of Southern Australia. Seadragons belong to the family Syngnathidae, which also includes the seahorses, pipefish and pipehorses.

Though close relatives of sea horses, sea dragons have larger bodies and leaf-like appendages which enable them to hide among floating seaweed or kelp beds. Sea dragons feed on larval fishes and amphipods , such as and small shrimp-like crustaceans called mysids ("sea lice"), sucking up their prey in their small mouths. Many of these amphipods feed on the red algae that thrives in the shade of the kelp forests where the sea dragons live. As with their smaller common seahorse (and pipefish) cousins, the male sea dragon carries and incubates the eggs until they hatch. During mating the female deposits up to 250 eggs onto the "brood patch" on the underside of the male's tail. After about eight Read More Go to Site Lined Seahorse Votes:0 Like a composite creature out of Greek myth, the seahorse appears to have borrowed physical characteristics from several other animals, and until recently kept most facts of its behavior and life cycle a secret. With a head that resembles a horse, a marsupial-like pouch in the male of the species for incubating its young, eyes that move independently like a lizard's, the tough bony plates of a dinosaur, a prehensile tail like a monkey's, and a chameleon's propensity for changing its colors to suit its environment, the seahorse hardly seems possible, let alone real. Yet 35 species of seahorse have been identified around the world. Four are native to North America, but only one–Hippocampus erectus, the lined seahorse–swims in the Chesapeake Bay.

Habitat: inhabits channels and flats during summer months; clings to vegetation and other holdfasts such as sponges, pilings or ropes. Food: known as a voracious ambush predator and master of camouflage (it can change color in seconds to match it's surroundings); sucks prey such as small crustaceans through it's long tubular snout. Characters useful in identification: head shaped like horse's head and situated at nearly a right angle to it's body; prehensile tail; dorsal fin with 16-20 rays; anal fin with 3 or 4 rays; pale yellow to nearly black in color; lines and spots present laterally.

The 24-year-old's head disappears under the water, pops up for air and disappears again. But more often than not, Abano resurfaces empty-handed. Indeed, he counts himself already lucky if he manages to haul in 10 seahorses in a single night. When Abano began selling the tiny creatures seven years ago, he could catch twice that amount, or even more. Older fisherfolk here in Handumon, on Jandayan Island off the northern tip of Bohol, say that as late as 1985, they used to get at least 50 seahorses per night.

They have a highly modified skeleton formed into armored plating with a tubular snout capable of drawing in prey such as small shrimp. Like the seahorse counterpart, the male fish carries the female's eggs in a brood pouch until they hatch and are dispersed into the surrounding water. The natural variances of color in the individual fish make them well suited for blending in with the grasses of the sea grass meadow.

The Seahorse ( Hippocampus ) is a small marine fish that, like other members of the pipefish family ( Syngnathidae ) is unique in appearance and behavior. The body is enclosed in bony rings, the tiny mouth at the end of a tubular bony snout, lacks pelvic fins, has a small anal fin and uses the dorsal fin for locomotion. The males take care of the eggs. The eggs are passed from the female to the male, who fertilizes them and then attaches them to his belly or places them in a special brood pouch. When the young hatch several weeks later, he expels them from his body. Seahorses move by rapid ripplings of the dorsal fin and use their tails to hold on to aquatic plants or other objects.

Unfortunately, many hobbyists are unaware of their requirements, and many seahorses fail to thrive. Picky eaters - Seahorses do not often eat flake, pellet or even most frozen foods. They prefer small live crustaceans like brine shrimp or Gammarus , but may learn to accept them frozen. The hobbyist should make sure these foods are regularly available before attempting to maintain seahorses.

Actually a seahorse is quite normal fish, coming along only in a very special dress. There are about 35 different species of seahorses spread all over the world, but only a small spectrum of this variety is frequently imported for aquarist purposes. While the smallest species, the dwarf seahorse, is just 1.5 inch in lenght, others achieve a body length up to 14 inch (giant seahorse). As charming as the appearance of a seahorse is the majestic and graceful way it swims.

Seahorses have many unique characteristics that make them intriguing to humans.

DESCRIPTION: A sea horse has long, tubular jaws much like a snout. The body is compressed, with an elongated tail, and the integument (external covering) is a series of large, rectangular bony plates, with a series of spines and projections along the lines of juncture. These spines, together with the divided, streamerlike fins of some species, give them a strong resemblance to the seaweeds among which they live. SPECIES AND LOCATION: About 30 species of sea horses are found in various warm and temperate seas. Sea horses are of the same family as the pipefish. All keep near the shore, often developing in brackish water. BEHAVIOR: Sea horses, like pipefish, have unusual breeding habits.

Tube fish or better known as seahorses are found in waters that have various different temperature and saline content extremes. Learn why! Beautiful and adaptable, the strange little tube fish called seahorses are found in waters that have various different temperature and saline content extremes. Seemingly insensitive to different levels of saline these creatures are found in water that contains levels of up to forty percent fresh water at times and even in brackish water occasionally. Using their tails they will snag seaweed hanging on while they drift along in the ocean. This method enables the tiny seahorse to cover vast distances across the ocean floor as they search for food.
