No, marlins and swordfish are not the same species. They belong to different genera within the same family, Istiophoridae. Marlins are in the genus Makaira, while swordfish are in the genus Xiphias.
No, mice and rats are not the same species. They belong to different species within the rodent family.
they can inter breed and produce fertile offspring.
A group of organisms of the same species is called a population. A group of different species living together is called a community.
No, not all bacteria are the same and there are variations within the species.
Species that are in the same family are more closely related than species that are only in the same order. The biological classification of family falls between order and genus.
There are marlins, sailfish, swordfish, and two types of spearfish. There are probably a few more.
They are different animals. The bill of the swordfish is longer and flatter than the marlin's. Swordfish are usually bigger and are usually eaten, while Marlins are caught for trophies.
the Swordfish are not listed as an endangered species. the Swordfish are not listed as an endangered species.
Swordfish primarily belong to the family Xiphiidae, with the species Xiphias gladius being the most recognized and studied. There are no distinct subspecies of swordfish, but they are known to inhabit different regions and can vary in size and weight based on their environment. Other related species in the broader billfish group include marlins and spearfish, which share similar characteristics but are classified under different genera. Overall, the swordfish is unique in its characteristics and does not have significant varietal classifications.
Swordfish are related to the tuna. They are part of the Xiphiidae family which includes tuna, swordfish, marlin, and some species of shark.
The Marlins name originates from the fish species.
striped bass, and herring are fish just like a swordfish is a fish, but not a close relative. the marlins (blue, black,white, and striped), the sailfish and the swordfish, commonly called billfish, are much more closely related to each other than bass or herring.
All swordfish have the same gender and can mate with any other swordfish. Swordfish have an extra sense that can tell which way north is. Swordfish will attempt to mate with fish that have artificial "swords" attached to them. Swordfish don't have scales.
Given that megaladons grow to be up to 10x the size of swordfish/marlins, you'd put your money on that.
The same you you would normally fish for swordfish but wearing the gloves.
It is possible but for now swordfish are not listed as an endangered species. In the North Atlantic, the swordfish stock is fully rebuilt, with 2010 biomass estimates currently 5% above the target level. Overfishing is likely occurring in the Indian Ocean, these stocks are considered of high conservation concern. Greenpeace International has added the swordfish to its seafood red list but not the endanger species list.
If you are asking about the marine Swordfish they are "Xiphias gladius" if you are asking about the tropical livebearing Swordtail, then the species is "Xiphophorus helleri".
