Teleostei (teleosts) > Aulopiformes (Grinners) > Evermannellidae (Sabertooth fishes)
Etymology: Odontostomops: Greek, odous = teeth + Greek, stoma = mouth + Greek, ops = appearance (Ref. 45335).

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology

Marine; pelagic-oceanic; depth range 400 - 1000 m (Ref. 4478). Deep-water

Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri

Atlantic, Indian and Pacific: in tropical and subtropical waters. Absent in the Mediterranean and in the eastern tropical Pacific. Widespread in the Eastern Central Atlantic but recorded mainly between 5°N and south of the equator. South China Sea (Ref.74511).

Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.3 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 4478)

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Mesopelagic at ca. 100-1000 m (Ref. 58302). Larvae (<3 cm SL) and small juveniles are frequently caught in the upper 50 or 100 m. Most adults are usually taken from depths exceeding 400 m but often between 100-400 m (Ref. 4763). Feeds on other midwater fishes. Synchronous hermaphrodites (Ref. 4478).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 2.3 - 10.9, mean 7.7 °C (based on 619 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 1.0039   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00417 (0.00157 - 0.01110), b=3.12 (2.89 - 3.35), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  4.3   ±0.60 se; based on food items.
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Assuming tmax>3).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
