The families Muraenidae, Blenniidae, Gobiidae, and Labridae had two species each, and the families Synodontidae,

HolocentridaeAnal spines, only one of which occur per individual squirrel and soldierfishes (
Holocentridae), was the most common element used to identify this family--even more abundant than the routinely used dentary.
