Mesocoracoid* arch always well developed, as in the and the Ganoids, forming a bridge from the hypercoracoid t(i tlio hypocoracoid. Bones of jaws developed, the maxillary broad, always distinct from preraaxillary, and forming part of margin of uppei jaw ; no barbels.

Dorsal and anal fins with- out true spines. Ventral fins abdominal, sometimes wanting. Scales usually cycloid, sometimes ctenoid ; occasionally wanting. No developed photophores. Adipose fin present or absent. A large group comprising most of the marine «oft-rp,yed fifihes, excepting those found iu the deep sea, thaso composing; the degenerate group called Iniomi.
