Tylosurus

	Tylosurus ''Tylosurus'' is a genus of needlefish, one of ten in the family Belonidae. They are found worldwide in tropical and warmer temperate seas and two species have been recorded as Lessepsian migrants in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Species The seven currently recognized species in this genus are: * '' Tylosurus acus'' (Lacepède, 1803) ''T. a. acus'' ( Lacépède, 1803) (Agujon needlefish) ''T. a. imperialis'' (Rafinesque, 1810) ''T. a. melanotus'' ( Bleeker, 1850) (keel-jawed needlefish) ''T. a. rafale'' Collette & Parin, 1970 (Atlantic agujon needlefish) * ''Tylosurus choram'' ( Rüppell, 1837) (Red Sea houndfish) * ''Tylosurus crocodilus'' ( Péron & Lesueur, 1821) ( Houndfish) * '' Tylosurus fodiator'' D. S. Jordan & C. H. Gilbert, 1882 (Mexican needlefish) * '' Tylosurus gavialoides'' ( Castelnau, 1873) (Stout long tom) * '' Tylosurus pacificus'' (Steindachner, 1876) (Pacific agujon needlefish) * '' Tylosurus punctulatus'' ( Günther, 1872) (Spotted long tom ...

picture info	Houndfish The houndfish, or more specifically the crocodile needlefish (''Tylosurus crocodilus'') is a game fish of the family Belonidae, the needlefishes. It is the largest member of its family, growing up to in length and in weight. Taxonomy The houndfish was described as ''Belona crocodila'' by François Péron and Charles Alexandre Lesueur in 1821 with the type locality given as Mauritius. Two subspecies of the houndfish were recognised: ''Tylosurus crocodilus crocodilus'' (Péron & Lesueur 1821) ''Tylosurus crocodilus fodiator'' Jordan & Gilbert 1882 However, Fishbase now recognises ''T.c. fodiator'' as a valid species, '' Tylosurus fodiator'', the Mexican needlefish. Description A key way of distinguishing the houndfish from other members of the genus ''Tylosurus'' is that the houndfish's teeth point anteriorly when the fish is a juvenile. The teeth of other species are straight at all ages.Collette, B.B. 1999 Belonidae. Needlefishes. p. 2151–2161. In: K.E. Carpenter and V ...

	Tylosurus Acus ''Tylosurus acus'' (keel-jawed needlefish) is a game fish of the family Belonidae. Distribution The keel-jawed needlefish is widespread in the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific oceans. Taxonomy There are four recognised subspecies of ''Tylosurus acus'': ''T. a. acus'' ( Lacepède, 1803) (Agujon needlefish) - in the western Atlantic from Massachusetts to Brazil and in the eastern Atlantic off Morocco and in the western Mediterranean ''T. a. imperialis'' (Rafinesque, 1810) in the Mediterranean Sea and Cape Verde Islands ''T. a. rafale'' Collette and Parin 1970 (Atlantic agujon needlefish) Gulf of Guinea ''T. a melanotus'' ( Bleeker, 1850) (Keel-jawed needlefish) in the Indo-West Pacific and oceanic islands in the eastern tropical Pacific Revillagigedo Islands, Clipperton Island, and Cocos Island.

picture info	Tylosurus Fodiator ''Tylosurus fodiator'', the Mexican needlefish, is a species of needlefish from the Family (biology), family Belonidae which is found only in the eastern Pacific, from the Gulf of California south to Ecuador including the Galapagos, Cocos Island, Cocos and Malpelo Island, Malpelo Islands. It was previously considered to be a subspecies of the houndfish but is now regarded as valid species. This species is normally encountered close to the coast but can be found in offshore waters. It is a predatory species, feeding mainly on small fishes. They lay eggs which adhere to objects in the water by filaments which cover the outer layer of the eggs. This species was Species description, described in 1882 by David Starr Jordan and Charles Henry Gilbert with the Type locality (biology), type locality given as Mazatlán in Sinaloa, western Mexico.
