Stromateoidei
Stromateoidei is a suborder of the Scombriformes, the largest order of fish. The suborder includes the medusafishes, squaretails and driftfishes which associate with jellyfish, the latter families preying on them while the medusafish use them for protection while scavenging food scraps. In revisions of the Perciformes, the Stromateoidei have been classified as a suborder of the Scombriformes.

Scombriformes
Scombriformes is an order of bony fish containing nine families which were classified under the suborders Scombroidei and Stromateoidei, of the wider grouping known as Perciformes, ''Fishes of the World'', 5th ed. (2016), recognised the order but subsequent workers have suggested that Scombriformes forms part of the larger Pelagiaria clade. Families The families placed under Scombriformes in Nelson 2016 are: * Order Scombriformes ** Suborder Scombroidei *** Family Gempylidae (snake mackerels) *** Family Trichiuridae (cutlassfishes) **** Subfamily Aphanopodinae **** Subfamily Lepidopodinae **** Subfamily Trichiurinae *** Family Scombridae (mackerels and tunas) **** Subfamily Gasterochismatinae **** Subfamily Scombrinae ** Suborder Stromateoidei *** Family Amarsipidae (the amarsipa) *** Family Centrolophidae (medusafishes) *** Family Nomeidae (driftfishes) *** Family Ariommatidae (ariommatids) *** Family Tetragonuridae (squaretails) *** Family Stromateidae (butterfis ...

Quaternary
The Quaternary ( ) is the current and most recent of the three period (geology), periods of the Cenozoic era (geology), Era in the geologic time scale of the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS). It follows the Neogene Period and spans from 2.58 million years ago to the present. The Quaternary Period is divided into two epochs: the Pleistocene (2.58 million years ago to 11.7 thousand years ago) and the Holocene (11.7 thousand years ago to today, although a third epoch, the Anthropocene, has been proposed but is not yet officially recognised by the ICS). The Quaternary Period is typically defined by the cyclic growth and decay of continental ice sheets related to the Milankovitch cycles and the associated climate and environmental changes that they caused. Research history In 1759 Giovanni Arduino (geologist), Giovanni Arduino proposed that the geological strata of northern Italy could be divided into four successive formations or "orders" ( it, quattro ord ...
