About: Billfish

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The term billfish refers to a group of saltwater predatory fish characterised by prominent pointed bills (rostra), and by their large size; some are longer than 4 m (13 ft). Extant billfish include sailfish and marlin, which make up the family Istiophoridae; and swordfish, sole member of the family Xiphiidae. They are apex predators which feed on a wide variety of smaller fish, crustaceans and cephalopods. These two families are sometimes classified as belonging to the order Istiophoriformes, a group which originated around 71 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous, with the two families diverging around 15 million years ago in the Late Miocene. However, they are also classified as being closely related to the mackerels and tuna within the suborder Scombroidei of the order Perciformes. H

  • The term billfish refers to a group of saltwater predatory fish characterised by prominent pointed bills (rostra), and by their large size; some are longer than 4 m (13 ft). Extant billfish include sailfish and marlin, which make up the family Istiophoridae; and swordfish, sole member of the family Xiphiidae. They are apex predators which feed on a wide variety of smaller fish, crustaceans and cephalopods. These two families are sometimes classified as belonging to the order Istiophoriformes, a group which originated around 71 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous, with the two families diverging around 15 million years ago in the Late Miocene. However, they are also classified as being closely related to the mackerels and tuna within the suborder Scombroidei of the order Perciformes. However, the 5th edition of the Fishes of the World does recognise the Istiophoriformes as a valid order, albeit including the Sphyraenidae, the barracudas. Billfish are pelagic and highly migratory, and are found in all oceans, although they usually inhabit tropical and subtropical waters; swordfish are found in temperate waters, as well. Billfish use their long spear/sword-like upper beaks to slash at and stun prey during feeding. Their bills can also be used to thrust prey, and have been known to impale boats (probably accidentally), but they are not normally used in that way. They are highly valued as game fish by sports fishermen. (en)
  • ( 다른 뜻에 대해서는 흰머리 문서를 참고하십시오.) 새치(billfish)는 매우 두드러진 부리 모양의 주둥이를 가진 대형 들을 가리키는 말이다. 일부 종은 신장이 4 미터를 초과하기도 한다. 돛새치과의 돛새치, 청새치, 녹새치 따위와 황새치과의 유일종인 황새치가 새치류에 속하며, 이들은 모두 돛새치목에 속한다. 새치들은 소형 어류, 갑각류, 두족류를 엄청나게 잡아먹는 최상위 포식자다. 새치들은 이며, 매우 먼 거리를 돌아다니면서 사는 회유어이다. 모든 바다에서 발견되지만, 열대나 아열대 지역의 바다에서 더 자주 발견된다. 단 황새치는 온대지역에서 발견될 때도 있다. 새치들은 마치 펜싱 칼처럼 생긴 주둥이로 먹이들을 베고 찢으며 사냥을 한다. 재수없게 사람의 보트를 찌르는 경우도 있으나, 찌르기는 주둥이의 주된 사용법이 아닌 것으로 생각된다. 새치류는 낚시꾼들에게 매우 인기가 좋은 어종이기도 하다.

  • Over the years, billfish tournaments have transformed into big business enterprises. Many prestigious tournaments now have enormous calcuttas and purses as well as large numbers of participating anglers. With huge purses and egos on the line, concern often arises whether all participants are adhering to the letter of the rules. (en)
