The abyssal grenadier, Coryphaenoides armatus, is an abyssal fish of the genus Coryphaenoides, found in all the world's oceans, at depths between 800 and 5,493 metres (2,625 and 18,022 ft). [3] Its adult length is 20 to 40 centimetres (8 to 16 in), although Fishbase [2] gives lengths up to 1 metre (3 ft 3 in). The abyssal grenadier's body is ...
The rough abyssal grenadier is an active benthic forager, with a diet that features a variety of seafloor fauna. [4] [5] Squids, crustaceans, and polychaetes comprise the most consistent sources of prey for C. yaquinae, though stomach content analyses have revealed echinoderms, fish, and food scavenged from carrion.

Grenadiers or rattails are generally large, brown to black gadiform marine fish of the subfamily Macrourinae, [1] the largest subfamily of the family Macrouridae.Found at great depths from the Arctic to Antarctic, members of this subfamily are amongst the most abundant of the deep-sea fish.
Abyssal grenadier: this resident of the abyssal zone is known to live at depths ranging from 800 and 4,000 meters. It has extremely large eyes, but a small mouth. It is thought to be a semelparous species, meaning it only reproduces once and then dies. This is seen as a way for the organism to conserve energy and have a higher chance of having ...
The rattail Coryphaenoides armatus (abyssal grenadier) on the Davidson Seamount at a depth of 2,253 metres (7,392 ft). Deep-sea species exhibit lower changes of entropy and enthalpy compared to surface level organisms, since a high pressure and low temperature environment favors negative enthalpy changes and reduced dependence on entropy-driven ...
