Scientific name: coryphaena hippurus Alias / Common name: Wan fish, black tiger fly Chinese Family: dolphin Division Maximum length: 210 cm Distribution: Widely distributed in tropical and subtropical areas of the oceans waters. [Morphology] Body elongated side of the flat, the front is tall, thin back gradient. Large head, back, very narrow, head back into a few square, there is a bony forehead bulge, with the growing and more obvious, especially male staggering. Mouth large, end position; jaw slightly protruding upper jaw. On the lower jaw, vomer, palatine bone and tongue are toothed. Body was small round scales, not falling; lateral line complete, at the top of the pectoral fins were irregularly curved and straight after. Dorsal fin single, base length, starting and ending at the top of the eye in front of caudal peduncle; anal fin is shorter, starting at the bottom middle of dorsal fin; small pectoral fins, sickle-shaped; caudal fin deeply forked. Lanes are green-brown, belly silvery white to pale gray, with yellow and Ze; side interspersed with green spots. Dorsal fin is purple blue; pectoral, pelvic edge was blue; caudal fin with silver and golden color. [Habits] As migratory pelagic fish, often found in groups in open water, but also occasionally found in coastal waters. Generally inhabit the ocean surface, like living in the shadow, it is often found in the following groups gathered driftwood or floating algae Department. Diurnal, bulimia, often hunt flying fish and surface fish such as sardines class sometimes prey out of the water. [Fox] Underwater Mahi mahi fishermen used to call the "cool fish", it also has an "underwater Fox" nickname. General ocean pelagic fish like the spotlight. They frolic while clusters, while another intersystem crossing waves splashing. However, this pelagic fish dolphinfish but different, they are always quietly in the water diving, or quietly hiding in the sea of floating debris below. Timid and cowardly they do? It is not. It is more than one meter in length and weighs about ten kilograms, can be described as a large body swift and fierce. On the back covered with glittering dark spots, dorsal fin and long and wide, from start to finish together, like a horse's mane erect; radius snout, sharp teeth exposed, looks quite wicked and wild. In addition, its swimming speed quickly, usually ranging from 30 to 50 km per hour. Therefore, mahi mahi once appeared, had shied away from the other similar aquarium. Mahi mahi like to hide under floating objects, beginning fishermen thought it was taboo sun, like habitat in the shade, so the name "cool fish." Later, it was finally discovered that this part of the migratory species of tropical and subtropical coastal areas when the country, mostly in the summer, the more scorching weather on the crowd appeared; while clouds or rain-soaked want to fall when they are all from the float Under physical withdrawal, in the sea, so call it "cool fish" is not appropriate. However, it is this "underwater Fox" moniker is not unworthy of it. The vastness of the Yellow Sea surface blue, clear, which makes the "fox" activity is extremely inconvenient, as long as it is a little walk, will immediately exposed. In the long struggle for existence, the "underwater fox" hunting methods rely swimming desperately to maintain life increasingly difficult. So, mahi mahi learned clever use of the terrain, avoid the body's ability to hide the feature, _select_ the backlight hiding place up, then wait for the fish to pass by, they surprise attack, the results do not take much to feast on. However, sometimes floating nearby and no fish after several days, even so, they do not throw another few places, but often sticking place. Do not worry, they are not sticking place to die, as long as you can chew raised his head attached to the floating shrimp or plankton. Interestingly, some clinging place who are often those "foresee" Predictable but good god veteran. Mahi mahi is another feature: it will be like a fox on the same land, the time of distress to lie down and play dead. Clever dolphin is well known, the general said, have to play catch dolphins after some food, and then live to swallow; If the prey is dead, then that is the Dolphins picked up "residue leftovers" and disdain Gu discarded. Mahi mahi seems to have realized that the dolphin whenever it accidentally fell into the dolphin population, they immediately pretended to be dead, so always repeatedly escaped. A little exaggerated to say that those veterans experienced veteran fisherman, sometimes inevitably be "fox" confused dumbfounding. Therefore, "underwater fox" is the nickname for the dolphin, but the more relevant.
