 Sharpchin Barracudina - Paralepis coregonides   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The sharpchin barracudina resembles the white barracudina, with which it shares the North Atlantic and adjacent Arctic Oceans.
However, the sharpchin barracudina has a more distinctive fork to its tail, a more pronounced triangular shape to its sharply angled anal fin, and a pectoral fin that is located anteriorly to its dorsal fin.
It appears to be swallowed tail first – a clue to the battles of the depths; this hunter must use its speed in an attempt to outrace predators, as well as to pursue its own meals.

 'Cudology 101
Some of the most common fishes in the mesopelagic (mid-water, to a depth of 3.2 km/2 mi) are the barracudinas, small species that have converged on a body plan strikingly similar to the morphology of the great barracuda.
Barracudina species include Lestidium atlanticus, that have luminescent organs, and Paralepsis barysoma, the largest — measuring 60 cm in length — that is fed on by tunas.
The family Esocidae includes large freshwater predators found in cold-temperate North American and Eurasian inland waters, such as the northern pike (Esox lucius) and muskellunge (E.

 Eternal Recurrence » Another dip into the deep
Finally, since it’s been a while since I did an odd fish update here, I once again checked in with Mark McGrouther (thanks, Mark!) to see if he’s put up anything new at the Australian Museum.
He noted that there hadn’t been any recent toothy fishes of the sort that tend to capture people’s attention, but pointed me to the newest update, the ribbon barracudina.
The Museum’s complete listing is here and is also fun to browse.
