Scaled sculpin
Scaled sculpins (genus Icelus) are a group of small benthic fishes (up to 25 cm) living in cold waters. They are mainly found in the North Pacific, with some species in the North Atlantic. They are characterized by a large, laterally compressed head and small spines. The lateral line is present and the dorsal fin base are dotted with scutes (plates).
In FishBase[1] and Nelson[2] the genus is included in the family Cottidae of sculpins but in some classifications it is raised to its own family, Icelidae Berg, 1940.
Species
FishBase lists sixteen species:[3]
- Icelus armatus (Schmidt, 1916).
- Twohorn sculpin, Icelus bicornis (Reinhardt, 1840).
- Icelus canaliculatus Gilbert, 1896.
- Icelus cataphractus (Pavlenko, 1910).
- Icelus ecornis Tsutsui & Yabe, 1996.
- Icelus euryops Bean, 1890.
- Icelus gilberti (Jordan & Starks, 1904).

- Icelus ochotensis (Gilbert & Burke, 1912).
- Icelus perminovi Taranetz, 1936.
- Icelus rastrinoides Taranetz, 1936.
- Spatulate sculpin, Icelus spatula Gilbert & Burke, 1912.
- Thorny sculpin, Icelus spiniger Gilbert, 1896.
- Icelus stenosomus Andriashev, 1937.
- Icelus toyamensis (Matsubara & Iwai, 1951).
