Lampris guttatus (Brünnich 1788; up to 2m in length) is the extant opah, a large, colorful, slow-moving discoidal fish. It was the first fish to be considered endothermic. Note the deep coracoids used to power the flapping pectoral fins. The mouth is toothless. It eats small fish and squid. Traditionally Lampris nests with the oarfish, Regalecus, but here nests close to the flying fish, Exocoetus and the pineconefish, Monocentris.

Monocentris japonicus (originally Scomber japonicus Houttuyn 1782; 12-17cm) is the extant Japanese pineconefish, so named because it is covered in scutes, a larger sort of scale. This nocurnal relaltive of Lampris lives in caves. It has light-producing areas filled with bioluminescent bacteria on the lower jaws, distinct from the unrelated flashlight fish, Anomalops.
