Evermannella is a genus of sabertooth fishes.
There are currently five recognized species in this genus: [1]
Aulopiformes is a diverse order of marine ray-finned fish consisting of some 15 extant and several prehistoric families with about 45 genera and over 230 species. The common names grinners, lizardfishes and allies, or aulopiforms are sometimes used for this group. The scientific name means "Aulopus-shaped", from Aulopus + the standard fish order suffix "-formes". It ultimately derives from Ancient Greek aulós + Latin forma, the former in reference to the elongated shape of many aulopiforms.
Sabretooth or sabertooth may refer to:
Sabertooth or sabretooth fish are small, fierce-looking deep-sea aulopiform fish comprising the family Evermannellidae. The family is small, with just eight species in three genera represented; they are distributed throughout tropical to subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans.
Labidochromis is a genus of cichlid fishes that are endemic to Lake Malawi in East Africa. The genus includes 18 formally described species, and several yet undescribed species. It includes a number of species commonly kept in cichlid aquariums such as L. caeruleus. The species in this genus can easily hybridize, so if kept in an aquarium it is recommended to only have one species from this genus.
Pseudotropheus is a genus of fishes in the family Cichlidae. These mbuna cichlids are endemic to Lake Malawi in Eastern Africa.
The Ipnopidae are a family of fishes in the order Aulopiformes. They are small, slender fishes, with maximum length ranging from about 10 to 40 cm. They are found in temperate and tropical deep waters of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans.
Melanochromis is a genus of haplochromine cichlids endemic to Lake Malawi in Eastern Africa. Ecologically, they belong to the rock-dwelling mbuna cichlids of Lake Malawi.
The balbo sabretooth, Evermannella balbo, is a sabertooth of the family Evermannellidae, found circumglobally in tropical and subtropical seas, at depths of between 100 and 1,000 m. Its length is up to 17 cm.
Oncorhynchus rastrosus also known as the sabertooth salmon, is an extinct species of salmon that lived along the Pacific coast of North America, first appearing in the late Miocene in California, then dying out some time during the Early Pliocene. Adults grew to be 2.29 m (7.5 ft) in length and are believed to have been anadromous like their living relatives. Besides being the largest member of the Pacific salmon genus Oncorhynchus, members of this species had a pair of small "fangs" protruding from the tip of the snout, thus explaining the common name and synonym. Beyond their fangs, adults of O. rastrosus had larger gill rakers compared to their smaller, modern relatives, leading scientists to suggest that the adults ate plankton.
Rhinodoras is a genus of thorny catfishes native to South America.
Rhynchodoras is a small genus of thorny catfishes native to South America. Rhynchodoras is closely related to Rhinodoras and Orinocodoras.
Trachelyichthys is a genus of driftwood catfishes found in tropical South America.
Vinciguerria is a genus of bristlemouths. It is named for Dr. Decio Vinciguerra (1856-1934), an Italian ichthyologist.
Coccorella is a genus of sabertooth fishes.
Odontostomops normalops, the Undistinguished sabertooth, is a species of sabertooth fish found in the oceanic depth from 400 to 1,000 metres. This species grows to a length of 12.3 centimetres (4.8 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus.
Scopelarchoides is a genus of pearleyes.
Bolinichthys is a genus of lanternfishes.
Amphimachairodus is an extinct genus of large machairodonts belonging to the clade known as Eumachairodontia along with relatives like Smilodon and Homotherium. It is also a member of the tribe Homotherini within Machairodontidae and is most closely related to such species as Xenosmilus, Homotherium itself, and Nimravides. It inhabited Eurasia, Northern Africa and North America during the late Miocene epoch.
John Ernest "Jack" Randall was an American ichthyologist and a leading authority on coral reef fishes. Randall described over 800 species and authored 11 books and over 900 scientific papers and popular articles. He spent most of his career working in Hawaii. He died in April 2020 at the age of 95.
