Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh water, passage to sea by newly hatched larvae, a period of feeding and growing at sea usually a few months long, return to fresh water of well-grown juveniles, a further period of feeding and growing in fresh water, followed by reproduction there (Ref. 82692).

This species grows to a length of 28.5 centimetres (11.2 in) TL. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Chonerhinos. Its common names include bronze pufferfish and yellow pufferfish.[1] It has been suggested that the genus name Chonerhinos is not valid and that the fish should be renamed.[2] As of 2013, the name is still in use.[3] Notes[edit] ^ Froese, R. and D.
