Later, more specimens were found in the stomach of a lancetfish, Alepisaurus ferox.

The largest member of this order is the lancetfish (Alepisaurus ferox), found in all the world's oceans.

The Alepisaurus ferox lives in the marine environment, and are known to be found in deep-water ocean.

The scientific name is the Alepisaurus ferox, and the common name in english Long snouted lancetfish.

It becomes infected by eating intermediate hosts, probably opah (Lampris guttatus) and/or longnose lancetfish (Alepisaurus ferox).

Known predators of small king-of-the-salmon include the bigeye thresher shark (Alopias superciliosus) and the longnose lancetfish (Alepisaurus ferox).

USS Lancetfish (SS-296), a Balao-class submarine, was the only ship of the United States Navy to be named for the lancetfish (Alepisaurus ferox), a large voracious, deep sea fish having long lancetlike teeth and a high long dorsal fin.
