Sciaenoidei is a suborder of ray-finned fishes belonging to the order Acanthuriformes.

Taxonomy

The suborder was first proposed in 1828 by the French zoologist Georges Cuvier.[1] The 5th edition of Fishes of the World classifies the suborder in the order Acanthuriformes.[2] Other authorities classify the Sciaenidae and the Emmelichthyidae as incertae sedis within the series Eupercaria.[3] The Catalog of Fishes retains this family within the Acanthuriformes but does not recognise the suborder Sciaenoidei.[4]

Families

Sciaenoidei comprises 2 families:[2][5]
