Oneirodidae

Oneirodes eschrichtii

The Oneirodidae are the most species-rich family of deep-sea angler fish ( Ceratioidei ). They live in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Ocean at great depths. Over the life of the fish is as good as nothing is known.

Features

All Oneirodidae have a clumsy, laterally compressed body. The skin is naked or covered in the females of some species, with small skin tag. The eyes are small, the mouth is not vorstreckbar. The Illicium (Angel) has the form of a small lobe in most species. The dorsal fin has four to eight fin rays, the anal fin four to seven. Pelvic fins are absent. All Oneirodidae are small fish. The females reach sizes of six to 28 centimeters. The males are smaller and are not even partially an inch long.
