The Stomiiformes includes about 455 species of mostly mesopelagic fishes in the families
Diplophidae, Gonostomatidae, Phosichthyidae, Sternoptychidae, and Stomiidae. Here we …

It has long been hypothesized that aquatic biomass is evenly distributed among logarithmic
body mass size classes. Although this community structure has been observed regionally …

We present estimates of length–weight relationships (LWRs) of 55 mesopelagic fish species
of 13 taxonomic families based on data collected in the eastern tropical North Atlantic …

Mesopelagic fish populations are characterised by high species richness and abundance,
and have been identified as important contributors to the active carbon fluxes in the open …

DNA metabarcoding and morphological taxonomic (microscopic) analysis of the gut
contents was used to examine diet diversity of seven species of fishes collected from …

Length–weight relationships (LWRs) were estimated for 36 mesopelagic fish species
collected from the equatorial and tropical Atlantic encompassing several oceanographic …

The deep sea is the largest and one of the most extreme environments on Earth. It is
estimated that 10–15% of all fish species are dwelling in the deep sea, most of which have …

Despite the increasing number of studies on the systematics of the Stephanoberycoidei
