r CHAPTER V ADAPTATIONS OF FISHES PINES of the Catfishes.—The catfishes or homed pouts(Silurida) have a strong spine in the pectoral fin, oneor both edges of this being jagged or serrated. Thisspine fits into a peculiar joint and by means of a slight downwardor forward twist can be set immovably. It can then be brokenmore easily than it can be depressed. A slight turn in the oppositedirection releases the joint, a fact known to the fish and readilylearned by the boy. The sharp spine inflicts a jagged wound.
