Acanthuriformes is an order of ray-finned fishes, part of the Percomorpha clade. Some authorities place the fishes in the order within the Acanthuriformes in the suborders Acanthuroidea and Percoidea of the order Perciformes.
Classification
The Acanthuriformes as defined in the 5th edition of Fishes of the World is set out as follows: [2][3]
- Order Acanthuriformes
- Suborder Sciaenoidei Gill, 1872
- Family Emmelichthyidae Poey, 1867 (Rovers)
- Family Sciaenidae Cuvier, 1829 (Drums)
- Suborder Acanthuroidei Greenwood et al, 1966[4]
- Family Luvaridae Gill, 1885 (Luvar)
- Family Zanclidae Bleeker, 1876 (Moorish angels)
- †Family Acanthonemidae Bannikov, 1991
- †Family Massalongiidae Tyler & Bannikov, 2005
- Family Acanthuridae Bonaparte, 1835 (Surgeonfishes)
- Subfamily Nasinae Fowler & Bean, 1929
- Subfamily Acanthurinae Bonaparte, 1835
- Tribe Prionurini J.L.B. Smith, 1966
- Tribe Zebrasomini Winterbottom, 1993
- Tribe Acanthurini Bonaparte, 1835
- Suborder Sciaenoidei Gill, 1872
Other authorities do not include the Scianoidei within the Acanthuriformes and place the two families included in that suborder as incertae sedis in the Eupercaria.[5]
