clingfishes

DEFINITION

small marine fishes of the family Gobiesocidae equipped with a pelvic suction disc to cling to rocks (plural of clingfish)

EXAMPLE SENTENCES

Tiny clingfishes use their specialized belly suckers to anchor themselves against strong ocean waves. Divers observed small clingfishes sheltering under tide pool rocks along the rocky shore. Researchers studied how the adhesive forces of clingfishes operate on rough underwater surfaces. The unique suction capabilities of clingfishes inspire biomimetic technological adhesive designs. These resilient clingfishes thrive in turbulent intertidal environments where other species struggle.
