Scombriformes is an order of bony fish containing nine families which were classified under the suborders Scombroidei and Stromateoidei, of the wider grouping known as Perciformes,[1] Fishes of the World, 5th ed. (2016), recognised the order[2] but subsequent workers have suggested that Scombriformes forms part of the larger Pelagiaria clade.[3]
The earliest scombriform is Landanichthys from the Middle Paleocene of Angola.[4]
Families
The families placed under Scombriformes in Nelson 2016 are:[2]
- Order Scombriformes
- Suborder Scombroidei
- Family Gempylidae (snake mackerels)
- Family Trichiuridae (cutlassfishes)
- Subfamily Aphanopodinae
- Subfamily Lepidopodinae
- Subfamily Trichiurinae
- Family Sphyraenidae (barracudas)
- Family Istiophoridae (sailfish, marlins, and spearfish)
- Family Xiphiidae (swordfish)
- Family Gasterochismatidae (butterfly kingfish)
- Family Scombridae (mackerels and tunas)
- Suborder Stromateoidei
- Family Amarsipidae (the amarsipa)
- Family Centrolophidae (medusafishes)
- Family Nomeidae (driftfishes)
- Family Ariommatidae (ariommatids)
- Family Tetragonuridae (squaretails)
- Family Stromateidae (butterfishes)
- Suborder Scombroidei
In Betancur-R et al., 2017,[3] the following additional families are placed under Scombriformes, which is considered synonymous with the Pelagiaria clade.
- Family Arripidae (Australasian salmon (kahawai))
- Family Bramidae (pomfrets)
- Family Caristiidae (manefishes)
- Family Chiasmodontidae (swallowers)
- Family Icosteidae (the ragfish)
- Family Pomatomidae (the bluefish)
- Family Scombrolabracidae (the longfin escolar)
- Family Scombropidae (gnomefishes)
