The fish group with the greatest number of species is the teleosts, which belong to the class Actinopterygii. Teleosts account for over 26,000 species, making them the most diverse group of vertebrates. This group includes familiar species such as salmon, tuna, and goldfish, and they are characterized by their bony skeletons and advanced anatomical features.
