Ichthyology is the branch of zoology devoted to the study of fish. This includes skeletal fish (Osteichthyes), cartilaginous fish (Chondrichthyes), and jawless fish (Agnatha). Since fish have undergone millennia of evolution and that there are more species of fish as all other vertebrates combined, there is a bewildering variety. While a majority of species have probably been discovered and described, approximately 250 new species are officially described by science each year.
The practice of ichthyology is associated with marine biology, limnology, and oceanography.
History
Ichthyology originates to the Upper Paleolithic Revolution to the present day. This science was developed in several interconnecting epochs, each with various significant advancements. More on [ Ichthyology ]

@gmlamb Ahahahaa I would NOT put it past queer theory to subsume ichthyology in some way.

@hannahlorah okay, that makes sense! I spent half an hour last night wondering what queer ichthyology was trying to accomplish.

I may have just set the curve for my ichthyology test. I shouldn't be so proud, but... *Dances!*
