Gadidae

Atlantic cod Gadus morhua, copyright Joachim S. Müller.


Belongs within: Gadiformes.

The Gadidae, cods, are a group of marine fishes found primarily in circumpolar to temperate waters of the Northern Hemisphere. They are characterised by an externally symmetrical caudal fin, rounded cycloid scales, no v-shaped ridge on the top of the head, and a swim bladder that is not connected to the skull (Klein-MacPhee 2002a).
