After Liitken markedly from the adult even after a considerable size has been attained. The larva of the lamprey is very worm- like in appearance, nearly blind and toothless, and it was long supposed to belong to a different genus from the adult. In some of the young flying fishes the lower jaw projects far beyond the upper one, as in the halfbeaks, whereas in the adult it is but little longer than the upper. The swordfish reverses this order, both jaws being greatly prolonged in the young, whereas in the adult the upper jaw projects far beyond the lower. Generally the fin rays are the first characters to appear [136].
