Abstract

Like other needlefish, the Atlantic needlefish has a long, thin, needle-like beak formed by its upper and lower jaws. Both of its jaws are lined with tiny, sharp teeth. This needlefish differs from other needlefish in that its caudal, or tail, fin is bluish and the lower half of its beak is pale.
