Wikipedia definition
2. RagfishThe ragfish, Icosteus aenigmaticus, is an odd ray-finned fish of the northern Pacific Ocean; although a perciform, its skeleton is mostly cartilage, and the larvae have pelvic fins that disappear as they mature. It is the sole member of the family Icosteidae, and some authorities place it into its own order Icosteiformes. It was first described by W. N. Lockington in 1880. The ragfish body is scaleless and limp, both because of the cartilaginous skeleton, as well as its flabby muscles.
