paired fins (one on either side of the body) located just behind or below the gill openings

The pair of fins at the front of the fish, behind its head.

These fins are used to control delicate movements along with the pelvic fins.

Paired fins located on each side of the fish behind the gill covers.

Pair of fins found on fish behind the head, corresponding to the forelimbs of higher land vertebrates.

The anterior or dorsalmost paired fins of fishes. They correspond to the anterior limbs of the higher vertebrates.

the most anterior or uppermost of the paired fins, usually dorsal to pelvic fins

large fins on the bottom front side of the shark

The anterior or uppermost of the paired fins, which correspond to the anterior limbs of the higher vertebrates.

a pair of fins near the gill cover on a fish.

Paired fins located ventrally posterior to the head in sharks. And forming the disc in rays.

either of the two fins of a fish that correspond to the forelimbs of a quadruped (a four-legged animal). Pectoral fins are those situated on the chest. (sides of the fish just behind the head).

paired, paddle-shaped forelimbs used for stability and steering, also called flippers.

paired fins on the side of the body just behind the gill covers. Also called swim fins.

Paired fins, one on each side of the body located behind the gill covers. They are generally smaller, transparent, and very delicate.

The fin usually found on each side of the body behind the gill opening; this pair of fins is found on the lower parts of the body in primitive forms of fish; corresponding to the forelimbs of higher vertebrates; united to form the disc in most rays. ( 126) See chart for details.

paired fins (' arms') located on the sides near the gill area.

the pair of fins just behind the head of a fish.

the two most forward fins on the underbelly of a fish.

homologous of the front limbs of terrestrial mammals, adapted to the water environment; in some species the bones structure of the pectoral fins is extremely similar the front limbs of actual terrestrial mammals; they are thought to work as body stabilizers

Fins located right behind the gill covers. They are generally small and relatively delicate.

The first, forward pair of fins

The anterior(front) paired fins, attached to pectoral (shoulder) girdle.

A pair of fins on a fish located directly behind the gills.

Fins attached to the shoulder on the side of the body.

The pair of fins that are located one on each side of a fish or cetacean just behind the gills.

The two fins (one on each side) located behind the head, on the side of the body.

These fins are located at the sides of the fish near the head region.

These are fins that appear on the “chest” of the fish and assist with controlling the direction of travel. They also enable the fish to effectively “tread water” and maintain a hovering position. They are also used for “braking”.

The paired fins attached to the shoulder girdle, immediately behind the gill opening.

Paired fins, located just behind or below the gill slits, and used for lift and movement control.

Pectoral fins are the paired fins located behind the head and on the lower side of the fish.

located just behind the gill openings (head of the fish)
