“…Due to their flexible, highly depressed bodies, hillstream loaches (Balitoridae) are able to use their entire body as a sucker (De Meyer & Geerinckx, 2014). Clingfishes (Gobiosocidae), lumpsuckers (Cyclopteridae), and gobies (Gobiidae) have independently derived pelvic‐fin modifications that allow them to act as a suction cup (Blob et al, 2019; Blob, Rai, Julius, & Schoenfuss, 2006; Davenport & Thorsteinsson, 1990; Ditsche, Wainwright, & Summers, 2014; Maie, Schoenfuss, & Blob, 2012; Schoenfuss & Blob, 2003; Wainwright, Kleinteich, Kleinteich, Gorb, & Summers, 2013), whereas remoras have a highly modified spiny dorsal fin that serves the same function (Beckert, Flammang, & Nadler, 2015; Fulcher & Motta, 2006; Nadler et al, 2013). Cypriniform algae‐eaters (Gyrinocheilidae), some gobies, and suckermouth catfishes in both Africa (Mochokidae) and South America (Astroblepidae, Loricariidae) have mouths that are modified to act as oral suckers, allowing them to adhere to surfaces, often while simultaneously feeding and respiring (De Meyer & Geerinckx, 2014; Geerinckx, Brunain, Herrel, Aerts, & Adriaens, 2007; Gerstner, 2007; Macdonnell, 1990; MacDonnell & Blake, 1990; Maie et al, 2012; Schoenfuss & Blob, 2003).…”
