Mangrove killifish or Mangrove rivulus, Kryptolebias marmoratus, jumping out of water. When jumping on land, the mangrove rivulus does a "tail flip", flipping its head over its body towards the tail end. The jumping technique gives it an ability to direct its jumps on land and to make relatively forceful jumps. It can spend up to 66 consecutive days out of water, which it typically spends inside fallen logs, breathing air through its skin. During this time, it alters its gills so it can retain water and nutrients, while nitrogen waste is excreted through the skin. The change is reversed once it re-enters the water. Brazil
