Istiophoriformes are an order of bony fish which is not fully recognized by some taxonomists, with some including the two extant families Xiphiidae and Istiophoridae,[1] and others, including the family Sphyraenidae.[2]

The earliest fossils of this group are of early billfish from the Late Paleocene of Peru and Turkmenistan.[3][4]

Families[edit]

The following families are classified under the Istiophoriformes. Three are extant, and three are extinct:[2][5]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
