Unreviewed
Subfamily From Carnevale & Collette, 2014: It is interesting to note, however, that a Cretaceous fossil, Bacchiaichthys zucchiae from the Campanian-Maastrichtian paralic deposits of Trebiciano, northeastern Italy (Bannikov and Sorbini, 2000), exhibits several batrachoidiform features. In particular, the overall physiognomy of Bacchiaichthys is very similar to that of toadfishes, and it also shows a similar structure of the caudal skeleton, with the epaxial plate fused to the second ural centrum and the hypaxial plate fused to the first ural centrum plus first preural centrum and parhypural, a similar configuration of the first dorsal fin, absence of supraneural, spineless anal fin, and caudal fin rounded and containing a reduced number of rays. Bacchiaichthys shows a number of features that concur to exclude any possible attribution to the Batrachoidiformes as currently defined (see Wiley and Johnson, 2010). [details]
