What is the latin name for snakehead fish?

The Latin name for snakehead fish is Channidae. This is the family name that encompasses all species of snakehead fish.

However, there are multiple species within this family, and they each have their own specific Latin name. For example, the Northern Snakehead (Channa argus) has the Latin name Channa argus.

So, when referring to a specific species of snakehead, you would use its individual Latin name. But if you're speaking about snakeheads in general, Channidae is the correct term.
