Does anyone know of an easily reached database of fish taxonomy that goes
beyond the genus and species level? I'm tryng to establish the proper family
classification of the European sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, which I have
seen assigned either to the Percichtyidae (temperate basses) or a smaller
family, the Moronidae. I have the impression that the latter represents a
fairly recent split from the Percichtyidae, but I'd like to know when and by
whom.
Thanks in advance,
