Southern lemon sole
The southern lemon sole, also known as the New Zealand lemon sole, is a righteye flounder, the only species in the genus Pelotretis, found around New Zealand in enclosed waters such as estuaries, harbours, mudflats, and sandflats, in waters less than 385 m in depth. Their length is from 25 to 50 cm.
A fossil specimen tentatively assigned to this species is known from the Late Pliocene-aged Titiokura Formation of the North Island.
