  Anoplogastridae (Family)
Fangtooths, also known as ogrefishes, are deep-sea, ferocious-looking beryciform fish of the family Anoplogastridae (sometimes incorrectly spelt "Anoplogasteridae").
With a circumglobal distribution in tropical and cold-temperate waters, the family contains only two very similar species with no known close relatives: the common fangtooth, Anoplogaster cornuta, found worldwide; and the shortthorn fangtooth, Anoplogaster brachycera, found in the tropical waters of the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean.
The Family Anoplogastridae is further organized into finer groupings including:

  Ridgehead - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The head is large and scaleless, with its profile either bluntly rounded or with a sharp frontal angle; it is conspicuous for its prominent ridges, which are covered by thin skin.
The head is also cavernous, being riddled by muciferous canals—similar structures are found in the beryciform slimehead (Trachichthyidae) and fangtooth (Anoplogastridae) families.
Sharp spines and serrations may further adorn the head in some species.

The fangtooth family Anoplogastridae (sometimes incorrectly written Anoplogasteridae), comprises two species of bathypelagic fishes in the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Ocean (Nelson, 2006).
The common name for the family comes from the numerous elongate fanglike teeth projecting out of the mouths of adults.
