FIL: Isang uri ng isda sa dagat (Filimanus xanthonema) na may malaking bibig at kilala sa mga lokal na pamayanan ng mangingisda.
EN: four-finned filimanus
A fish you've probably never heard of unless you're a fisherman from Palawan or your lolo is really into exotic marine life. It's not your everyday tilapia or galunggong. Finding this at the palengke is like finding a rare Pokémon.
Unknown, likely a local or indigenous name for the fish species.
This is a very specific and technical term, primarily used in ichthyology or by fishing communities in certain regions of the Philippines.
