Aulostomus Medius
The trumpetfishes are three species of highly specialized, tubularly-elongated marine fishes in the genus ''Aulostomus'', of the monogeneric family Aulostomidae. The trumpetfishes are members of the order Syngnathiformes, together with the seahorses and the similarly built, closely related cornetfishes. The generic name, ''Aulostomus'', is a composite of two Greek words: ''aulos'', meaning flute, and ''stoma'', meaning mouth, because the species appear to have tubular snouts. "Flutemouth" is another less-common name for the members of the family (although this word is more often used to refer to closely related cornetfishes of the family Fistulariidae). Trumpetfishes are found in tropical waters worldwide, with two species in the Atlantic and one in the Indo-Pacific. They are mostly demersal reef-dwellers, where one species seems to prefer rocky substrate. They are relatively large for reef fish, where they reach almost 1 m in length. Bodies of trumpetfish are rigid, elongate ...

Early Eocene
In the geologic timescale the Ypresian is the oldest age (geology), age or lowest stage (stratigraphy), stratigraphic stage of the Eocene. It spans the time between , is preceded by the Thanetian Age (part of the Paleocene) and is followed by the Eocene Lutetian Age. The Ypresian is consistent with the Lower Eocene (Early Eocene). Events The Ypresian Age begins during the throes of the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM). The Fur Formation in Denmark, the Messel shales in Germany, the Oise amber of France and Cambay amber of India are of this age. The Eocene Okanagan Highlands are an uplands subtropical to temperate series of lakes from the Ypresian. The Ypresian is additionally marked by another warming event called the Early Eocene Climatic Optimum (EECO). The EECO is the longest sustained warming event in the Cenozoic record, lasting about 2–3 million years between 53 and 50 Ma. The interval is characterized by low oxygen-18 isotopes, high levels of atmospheric pCO2 ...

Longspine Snipefish
The longspine snipefish (''Macroramphosus scolopax''), is a snipefish of the genus '' Macroramphosus'', also known by various names such as bellowfish, common bellowsfish, snipe-fish, snipefish, spine trumpet fish, or trumpetfish. It is also known as the slender snipefish particularly off the South African coast. Its distinct features, including its long, pointed snout and protruding dorsal spine, make it easily recognizable. Description Longspine snipefish are reddish pink dorsally but have silvery bellies. They have a large eye, long snouts, and a slender spine protruding dorsally. Longspine snipefish range from , with measurements including head length, fin lengths, and snout features. Males range from 9.1 cm to 13.8 cm, with a mean of 11.74 cm, while females are slightly larger, ranging from 9.7 cm to 16.0 cm, with a mean of 13.12±1.743 cm. A prominent feature of the longspine snipefish is their second spine in the first dorsal fin, which ranges from 21.92 mm to 36.47 mm. ...

Eoaulostomus
''Eoaulostomus'' ("dawn '' Aulostomus''") is an extinct genus of marine ray-finned fish, closely related to the modern trumpetfish, that lived during the Eocene. It contains two species, ''E. bolcensis'' (de Blainville, 1818) and ''E. gracilis'' Blot, 1981, both known from the Early Eocene-aged Monte Bolca site of Italy. The type species, ''E. bolcensis'', was initially described in error by Volta as a fossil specimen of the Chinese trumpetfish (''Aulostomus chinensis'') before being moved to its own species within '' Fistularia'' (thought to be synonymous with ''Aulostomus'' at the time) by de Blainville. It was later reclassified into ''Aulostomus'' and remained there for over a century until reclassification into its own genus,with the description of a new species.
