Framed Print of Spotfin Flyingfish

The Spotfin Flyingfish, Cheilopogon furcatus, I found in tropical waters of all major, non-polar oceans. Flying fish have been documented to reach reaching heights above the ocean surface of over 4 feet (1.2 meters) and gliding long distances, up to 655 feet (200 meters). To achieve long glides above the ocean's surface, great speed is required before leaping out of the water. Flying fish have been recorded in excess of 35 miles per hour pre-glide speed. Larval and adult flying fish can be associated with mats of Sargassum Weed. Sargassum Weed is a marine plant (a brown macroalga). Two species float, unattached to the substrate, on the surface: Sargassum natans and S. fluitans. These species are found in the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean, and in parts of the Atlantic. The "Sargasso Sea" was named for the mats of these plants on its surface. Dense mats can form and create huge "floating islands, " forming bands or mats dozens of meters in length or diameter. An entire community of wildlife has adapted to life in Sargassum weed including shrimp, crabs, and fish. The weed serves as critically important habitat for a number of larval fish including commercially important species such as billfish, sailfish, Mahi Mahi, and flying fish.
