Cornetfish Brain Replica

Description

Cornetfish brain replica measures 4.1 x 0.9 x 0.5 inches. The Fistularia tabacariabrain replica is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of a CAS specimen. 1:1 scale. Made in USA.

Cornetfishes are as thin and elongated as many eels. Very long snouts and distinct dorsal and anal fins distinguish them. They also have forked caudal fins whose center rays form a lengthy filament.

Cornetfish live in tropical and temperate marine waters around the world. You can find them in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans.

They feed on small fishes, crustaceans, and other invertebrates. They are of minor interest for fishing and appear in local markets within their range.
