The Zeiformes are a small order of marine ray-finned fishes most notable for the dories, a group of common food fish. The order consists of about 33 species in seven families, mostly deep-sea types. Zeiform bodies are usually thin and deep. Mouths are large, with distensible jaws, and there is no orbitosphenoid. Pelvic fins have 5-10 soft rays and possibly a spine, 5-10 dorsal fin spines and up to 4 anal fin spines. They range in size from the Dwarf Dory ''(Macrurocyttus acanthopodus)'', at in length, to the Cape Dory ''(Zeus capensis)'', which measures up to . The boarfishes (Caproidae) have been included in this order though they are currently included in the Perciformes. ==Families== *Family Cyttidae (lookdown dories) *Family Grammicolepididae (tinselfishes) *Family Oreosomatidae (oreos) *Family Parazenidae (parazens) *Family Zeidae (dories) *Family Zenionidae (zeniontids) (formerly known as Macrurocyttidae) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zeiformes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
