Seahorse is a genus of small marine bony fishes of a family of sea needles of a needle-shaped group. The number of species is about 50 [1].
The unusual shape of the skate's body resembles a chess piece of a horse. Numerous long spines and ribbon-like skinlike outgrowths, located on the body of the ridge, make it invisible among algae and inaccessible to predators. The sizes of sea horses are from 2 to 30 cm [2], depending on the species to which the particular individual belongs. An interesting feature of sea horses is that they have a male offspring.
