Can you check that a species you post will still score points
Also that images are not too big. I have already had to edit a few images.

Rockling(all species) only have 1 barbel on the chin.The shore rockling and three bearded have 1 below each nostril,(total barbels 3).The five bearded has 1 below each nostril and another 2 closer to the top lip,(total barbels 5).The four bearded has 1 beside each nostril and 1 more close to the top lip directly above the chin barble.(total barbels 4).And just for the record the Tadpole fish has 1 small barbel on its chin as with most of the cod family.
