(G) Diagram of physoclistous swim bladder of teleost fish. most teleost and ganoid fishes. In elasmobranch and cyclostomatous fishes, the air bladder is absent. Two main types of air bladders are found: (1) a physoclistous type (fig. 304G), in which a direct connection with the pharyngeal area is lost (, the toadfish, Opsanus tan), and (2) a more primitive physostomous variety (fig. 304A-E), retaining a pharyngeal or pneumatic duct (, the common pike or pickerel, Esox Indus). One function of the air bladder presumably is to alter the density of the fish in such a way as to keep its density as a whole equal to the surrounding water at various levels (Goodrich, '30, p. 586). Buoyancy, therefore, is one of the main functions of the air bladder. The air bladders of fishes, in some cases at least, have both respiratory or lung and buoyancy functions (Goodrich, '30, pp. 578-593). In the bony ganoid fishes, Amia calva and Lepisosteus osseiis (fig. 304B), the air bladder apparently has a primary function of external respiration and, therefore, may.
