The subfamily as a whole may represent up to 15% of the deep-sea fish population. Rattails, characterized by large heads with large mouths and eyes, have slender bodies that taper very much to very thin caudal peduncles or tails (except for one species without a caudal fin): this rat-like tail explains the common name "rattail" and the name of ...
The ridge scaled rattail [2] or ridge-scaled grenadier, [3] Macrourus carinatus, is a species of deep-water fish in the family Macrouridae. [1] [2] It has southern circumglobal distribution in temperate to subantarctic waters (34°S–65°S) and is found in the Southern Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans and in the Southern Ocean [1] [2] at depths of about 200–1,200 m (660–3,940 ft).
The graceful grenadier (Hymenogadus gracilis) is a species of rattail fish. It is found at depths of 160–345 m (525–1,132 ft) in tropical and subtropical seas worldwide. [1] This is one of the smallest of the rattails, growing to no more than 13 cm (5.1 in) in length.
For striped bass, Bartnicki said the place to find the largest fish are the Lake Eufaula dam and below Keystone Lake west of Tulsa on the lower Illinois River. Catfish
Sternopygus species inhabit both streams and rivers. [4] Many species are highly compressed laterally and translucent in life. [4] These fish have villiform (brush-like) teeth on the upper and lower jaws. The snout is relatively short. The eyes are relatively large, with a diameter equal to or greater than the distance between nares.
The species of Macrourus are found on the upper- to middle continental slope which are restricted to cold temperate and polar waters in both the North and South Atlantic as well as in the Southern Ocean. They are found at depths from around 200 meters (660 feet) to greater than 3,000 meters (9,800 feet).
