This leads to the common names narrow hatchetfish and elongate hatchetfish, the latter also used more specifically for T. elongatus. Their shape is an adaption for living near the water surface where they find most of their food such as fruits, seeds, leaves, flowers, other plant material, invertebrates (insects, spiders and alike) and ...
Acestrus is an extinct genus of marine ray-finned fish that lived during the lower Eocene in Europe. It contains one species, A. ornatus from the London Clay, known from a single braincase.
They have a mottled or spotted cryptic pattern, and have elongated dermal lobes in the region near the mouth. Most have a maximum length of 1.25 m (4.1 ft) or less, but two species, O. halei and O. maculatus , reach about 3 m (9.8 ft) (earlier reports of similar-sized O. ornatus is due to confusion with O. halei ).
Pair of E. elongatus eggs, Paleozoological Museum of China. Several oospecies of Elongatoolithus are known. They can be broadly divided into two classes based on ornamentation: most oospecies have linear ridges parallel to the long axis of the egg, but some (notably E. sigillarius and E. excellens) a rippled pattern of reoriented ridges transverse to the egg's long axis.

The ornate shrew is found along portions of the west coast of North America and a few near shore islands. The northern extent is around 39 degrees latitude in California. The range extends south into the Baja California peninsula. There is a stretch of territory through Baja where the shrew is not found, then it is found again near the southern ...
