Summary description from Wikipedia:
Alepisaurus ferox
Alepisaurus ferox, also known as the long snouted lancetfish, longnose lancetfish, or cannibal fish, is a species of lancetfish found in the ocean depths down to 1,830 m (6,000 ft). This species grows to 215 cm (85 in) in total length and a weight of 9 kg (20 lb).
The appellation cannibal fish stems from discoveries of partially-digested conspecifics in captured specimens.
