Description Mainly temperate (about 4 species in tropical Indo-Pacific). Distribution: Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic Oceans. Scales usually inconspicuous; cycloid, having radii in all fields. No cirri on nape. Dorsal fin with the spinous part longer than the soft-rayed portion; the fin rays all simple. A cordlike ligament stretches from ceratohyal to the articulation of the dentaries. About 60 cm maximum length, reported for Heterostichus rostratus; mostly well below 60 cm. [details]
