An anatomical illustration shows a male seahorse in lateral view with a distended ventral brood pouch, signifying paternal pregnancy. The organism is a marine teleost fish, Hippocampus (H.; seahorse), depicted with bony dermal plates, a dorsal fin, a coronet, and a prehensile curled tail. In hierarchical terms, the brood pouch is a reproductive organ within the trunk of the organism. In ichthyology and reproductive physiology, this pouch incubates embryos, providing protection, osmoregulation, and gas exchange until parturition. The site illustrated is the ventral abdominal region of the fish.
