Eupleurogrammus muticus is a marine fish with a very long and thin body. It inhabits warm coastal waters of the Indian and western Pacific oceans.
Eupleurogrammus muticus differs from related species by the absence of scales on the head. This fish is important in the marine food chain as a predator and serves as an object of commercial fishing.
Active hunting using speed and teeth.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
