Information The triplecross lizardfish can be found in a marine environment within a demersal depth range of about . This species is native to a tropical environment. The maximum recorded length of the Triplecross lizardfish as an unsexed male is about . The common length of this species as an unsexed male is around . The triplecross lizardfish can be found in the areas of Indo-West Pacific, Red Sea, India, Andaman Sea, eastward to southern Japan, and Australia. It is common in ranges from coastal sand flats to deep off-shore, but prefers deeper waters. It is used as a source of food. It is commonly caught and sold fresh or dried salted in markets.

Lizardfish
The Synodontidae or lizardfishes(or typical lizardfish to distinguish them from the Bathysauridae and Pseudotrichonotidae) are benthic (bottom-dwelling) marine and estuarine bony fishes that belong to the aulopiform fish order, a diverse group of marine ray-finned fish consisting of some 15 extant and several prehistoric families. They are found in tropical and subtropical marine waters throughout the world. Lizardfishes are generally small, although the largest species measures about in length. They have slender, somewhat cylindrical bodies, and heads that superficially resemble those of lizards. The dorsal fin is located in the middle of the back, and accompanied by a small adipose fin placed closer to the tail. They have mouths full of sharp teeth, even on the tongue. Lizardfishes are benthic animals that live in shallow coastal waters; even the deepest-dwelling species of lizardfish live in waters no more than deep. Some species in the subfamily Harpadontinae live in bra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
