Nettorhamphos radula, the duckbilled clingfish, is a species of clingfish (family Gobiesocidae) from the Indian Ocean off Western Australia. It is currently the sole member of the genus Nettorhamphos.[1]

Discovery and appearance

Nettorhamphos radula was discovered in a jar at the Western Australian Museum and only scientifically described in 2017. The specimen was caught and brought to the museum in the 1977.[2]

The species resembles other clingfish in being small (about Шаблон:Cvt) and having a suction cup on its chest, but differs by its large upper jaw that resembles the bill of a duck and its exceptionally high number of microscopic teeth, between 1,800 and 2,300.[1][3][4]
