A muscular fin base, in the space once occupied by the gills, supports a broad aerodynamic wing surface that can flap up to eight times a second or faster. In full flight, ocean flish flap their wings for a few seconds and then glide, looking for prey in the waves below.

Apparently the South American hatchetfish has evolved a rudimentary version of actual muscle-powered flight simply to escape predators. Especially in a cluttered freshwater environment like a rainforest or mangrove-cove one could imagine such a creature co-opting this basic form of powered flight to travel from pond to pond during the dry season once waterways become isolated.

Humanoid bodies don't seem to work well underwater. "Piscisicut Bipedalis" or "fish people" are intelligent life forms that have evolved on a water world. Despite the limitations of their aquatic environment, they have managed to create various tools and establish a civilization.

Locomotion. Swimming and Flopping. This creature is not like a mudskipper, it looks different and it's name sounds silly, although it sounds silly it is named after the shore like land next to the Ramen Swamp named Budra, it has poisonous spines with the Freshwater Pufferfish neurotoxin because the Pufferfish is its prey.

The chondrichthyans (hybodonts, sharks, rays and chimeras) are jawed fish that possess skeletons made out of cartilage rather than bone. An ancient and phenomenally resilient group of fish, they combine extreme morphological refinement with archaic features that are little-changed from their Devonian ancestors.

The Aquatic ( Piscanthropus submarinus) is one of the 5 genetically modified base species of posthumans that appear in the book Man after man, developed to inhabit the aquatic environment, presenting many more marked adaptations than its indirect ancestor the Aquamorph with a high modified morphology and the ability to reproduce.

Speculative evolution, also known as speculative biology, is a way of experimenting with Darwinian processes. Although every branch of this is unique, they all share one thing, and that is creative natural selection. Three major branches, along with two minor ones, are generally accepted.

Speculative Evolution (also called Speculative Biology and Speculative Zoology) is the envisioning of fictional, but scientifically possible creatures that could have existed on an alternate Earth, or might actually exist somewhere on another planet or in the deep sea.

The proverbial "fish out of water," tetrapods were the first vertebrate animals to climb out of the sea and colonize dry (or at least swampy) land, a key evolutionary transition that occurred somewhere between 400 and 350 million years ago, during the Devonian period. Crucially, the first tetrapods descended from lobe-finned, rather than ray.

Speculative evolution is a subgenre of science fiction and an artistic movement focused on hypothetical scenarios in the evolution of life, and a significant form of fictional biology. [1] It is also known as speculative biology [2] and it is referred to as speculative zoology [3] in regards to hypothetical animals. [1]

Seahorses Are The Most Rapidly Evolving Fish Scientists Have Ever Seen. For the first time, scientists have sequenced the entire genome of a seahorse to discover that it has a higher rate of evolution than any other species of bony fish that's been studied so far. This rapid evolutionary rate explains many of the seahorse's strangest traits.

This sperm whale-like creature is a giant fish that evolved from tuna that survived in the deep sea. It is a relative of Jaeger Falco who has advanced to the sky. Like normal fish, the tail fin is waving sideways. In the world 200 million years later, it has entered the niche of sperm whales and octopus whales. I mainly live alone. Prey on giant squid and silver swimmers that live in the deep.
