Italiano: Il Catalogo di pesci su sfondo nero è un mosaico (cm 88 x 88), rinvenuto a Pompeii (triclinio della casa VIII, 2, 16), oggi a Napoli nel Museo Archeologico Nazionale (inv. nr. 120177). Non va confuso con l'altro mosaico molto simile, trovato a Pompeii nella Casa del Fauno, caratterizzato da un orizzonte marino. Entrambi si caratterizzano per il combattimento del polipo con l'aragosta al centro, dalla grande spigola in basso, e da un piccolo scoglio con sopra un martin pescatore pronto a tuffarsi nel mare sulla sinistra.

English: The Catalog of fish on a black background is a mosaic (88 x 88 cm), found in Pompeii (triclinium of house VIII, 2, 16), today in Naples in the National Archaeological Museum (inv. No. 120177). It should not be confused with the other very similar mosaic found in Pompeii in the Casa del Fauno, characterized by a marine horizon. Both are characterized by the fighting of the octopus with the lobster in the center, by the large bass at the bottom, and by a small rock with a kingfisher on it ready to dive into the sea on the left.

Français : Le Catalogue de poissons sur fond noir est une mosaïque (88 x 88 cm), trouvée à Pompéi (triclinium des maisons VIII, 2, 16), aujourd'hui au Musée national d'archéologie de Naples (No. 120177). Il ne faut pas la confondre avec l’autre mosaïque très similaire trouvée à Pompéi dans la Casa del Fauno, caractérisée par un horizon marin. Tous deux sont caractérisés par le combat de la pieuvre avec le homard au centre, par la grande basse en bas et par un petit rocher avec un martin-pêcheur prêt à plonger dans la mer à gauche.
