	Denticle herring
		The denticle herring (Denticeps clupeoides) is a small (15 cm) species of ray-finned fish found only in the rivers of Benin, Nigeria and Cameroon, related to the herrings, but notable for its large anal fin[?] and its array of denticles[?] under the head giving it almost a furry appearance.
		It is the sole living member of the family Denticipitidae.

	Chondrichthyes Summary
		It is assumed that their oral teeth evolved from dermal denticles who migrated into the mouth.
		But it could also be the other way around as a teleost bony fish named Denticeps clupeoides, the only member in the family Denticipitidae, has most of its head covered by dermal teeth (as do probably Atherion elymus, another species of bony fish).
		This is most probably a secondary evolved characteristic.
