It is in the same class as the sharks. It was described in 1868. Unfortunately for this fish it has a high infection rate from various parasites (nine have been recorded). The most visible is a copepod (crustacean) parasite, Lernaeopodina longibrachia, that attaches to the cornea. This parasite infects around 80% of individuals.
