Trinectes is a genus of American soles native to the Americas. Most species are coastal, occurring in both salt and brackish water, but several may enter fresh water and one, T. hubbsbollinger, is restricted to rivers.[1] They are fairly small, with the largest species only reaching 25 cm (9.8 in) in length.[2]
