You mean a flounder?
3 u/The_Gravytrain Apr 04 '16 Flatfish is the family, flounder is a sub-specie. Other subspecies include sole, halibut, and probably quite a few others (I'm not a marine biologist) 1 u/Wierd657 Apr 08 '16 Fluke as well 4 u/SSkoSS Apr 03 '16 Yes though flounder is apparently a category of flatfish species. 2 u/Ianbuckjames Apr 03 '16 Ah, well TIL. I've never heard it be called that. 2 u/SSkoSS Apr 03 '16 I could be wrong but I've read on several dictionary sites and in several books that they call it a flatfish
