A magnified view shows rhomboid, non-overlapping ganoid scales forming a tessellated armor on fish skin. Diamond-shaped units with bright central thickenings and dark articulating seams are visible, reflecting the enamel-like ganoine surface. In hierarchical terms, each scale is a dermal skeletal element within the integumentary system of ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii), examined in ichthyology and comparative anatomy. Functionally, ganoid scales furnish protective exoskeletal coverage and contribute to hydrodynamic stability along the body wall.
