The Spotted Knifejaw (Oplegnathus punctatus) is one of seven species in the Oplegnathidae family of Knifejaws. These perciform fish, an order of ray-finned fish that are “perch-like”, characteristically have teeth fused into a parrot-like beak during adulthood. They diagnostically have a single dorsal fin and body covered in small scales that are known as ctenoid scales. Knifejaws are typically distributed in the Indian and Western Pacific Ocean, near southern parts of the Korean Peninsula, Taiwan, China, Japan, and Hawaii[1]. There have been numerous studies outlining breeding technology for the spotted knifejaw, due to them being important constituents of aquaculture in China and Japan due to its high nutritional value.
