1. Lates

   Lates is a genus of freshwater and euryhaline lates perches belonging to the family Latidae. The generic name is also used as a common name, lates, for many of the species.All species are predatory, and the Nile perch (L. niloticus), in particular, has become infamous as an invasive species introduced into the East African Lake Victoria, where many native Haplochromines were driven extinct. In contrast to the widespread Barramundi and Nile perch (though the fish does face threats from human activity), several members of the genus Lates with relatively restricted African or Asian distributions are themselves considered threatened.

However, in the context of biology, "Lates" is a genus of fish in the family Latidae. The context would determine the exact definition.

1. Lates

   Lates is a genus of freshwater and marine fish in the family Latidae of the order Perciformes. The type species is Lates niloticus, the Nile perch. The Lates species are native to the Indian and western Pacific Oceans and to rivers and lakes in Africa; several species are endemic to the Rift Valley lakes. The generic name is also used as a common name, lates, for many of the species. These fishes range in size from less than 30 cm to 2 m in maximum overall length, the largest species reaching weights of up to 200 kg. They all have the characteristic centropomid shape, with the two-part dorsal fin and general percoid form. Inhabiting a variety of habitats, the Lates species are generally carnivorous, feeding on invertebrates and other fish. The Nile perch has become infamous as an invasive species in the east African Lake Victoria, where many native cichlids now are extinct. In contrast to the Nile perch, several smaller members of the genus Lates with relatively restricted African distributions are themselves considered threatened. The generic name Lates derives from the Latin latēre.
