Etymology: Isogomphodon: iso-, from isos (Gr.), equal; gomphos (Gr.), nail; odon (Gr.), tooth, referring to how teeth are equally fastened, i.e., claviform and straight in both jaws. (See ETYFish); oxyrhynchus: oxys (Gr.), sharp; rhynchus (L.), snout, referring to its elongated, pointed and narrow snout [authorship often attributed to Müller & Henle, who published Valenciennes’ description]. (See ETYFish).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 27 - 27.8, mean 27.5 °C (based on 149 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 1.0000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00468 (0.00218 - 0.01003), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 4.5 ±0.80 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 10.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2
growth studies.
