  Clupeid Fish. In: Marine Biodiversity - An Introduction. Author: Peter Dyrynda   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Clupeiforms often form large pelagic schools in coastal and open oceanic waters, where they swim along with their mouths open, filtering plankton with their gills.
Clupeiform fish are often targeted by commercial fishermen.
History has shown that clupeiform fish stocks are particularly prone to crash as a result of unsustainable levels of harvesting amogst other factors.

The scales are olive-green, turning increasingly reddish in the tail region and becoming crimson near the tail fin.
The swim bladder, as in all members of the order Clupeiformes, is open to the pharynx; in the arapaima it is rich in blood vessels and serves as a lung.
It is a graceful swimmer despite its bulk, and it is valued as an aquarium fish as well as for food.

An informative introduction to buying, preparing and cooking fish follows a chapter of reflections on the state of marine ecosystems, catching your first fish, and what can or cannot be classified as a fish.
The rest of the book is divided into 14 sections describing different types of fish--flatfish, clupeiformes, shellfish, migrants, squid and cuttlefish, and even preserved fish.
Each section is prefaced with a list of the different sorts of fish in the category with a star ranking indicating what the authors consider the best buys and a heart symbol for fish which are high in Omega-3 fatty acids.

 Biogeography of the Dolphinfish
The Leptolepiformes were the first members of the Actinopyerygii subclass with a homocercal tail (Greenwood 1963).
This order is credited with evolving into the Clupeiformes during the Cretaceous period (Greenwood 1963).
Throughout the Cretaceous, continued evolution spawned the Beryciformes, and finally, the present-day order of which the Coryphaenidae family is a member, Perciformes (Greenwood 1963).
